NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Postal Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized in the state of Maryland on November 19, 2018. On May 17, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share (the “Class A common stock”). The Company contributed the net proceeds from the IPO to Postal Realty LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), in exchange for common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (each, an “OP Unit,” and collectively, the “OP Units”). Both the Company and the Operating Partnership commenced operations upon completion of the IPO and certain related formation transactions (the “Formation Transactions”). Prior to the completion of the IPO and the Formation Transactions, the Company had no operations.
The Company’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles the Company to share in distributions from, and allocations of profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to the Company’s percentage ownership of OP Units. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has the exclusive power under the partnership agreement to manage and conduct the Operating Partnership’s business, subject to limited approval and voting rights of the limited partners. As of June 30, 2021, the Company held an approximately 79.7 % interest in the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner and the majority interest holder, the Company consolidates the financial position and results of operations of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
The Company’s predecessor (the “Predecessor”) was a combination of limited liability companies (the “LLCs”), one C-Corporation (“UPH”), one S-Corporation (“NPM”) and one limited partnership. The entities that comprised the Predecessor were majority owned and controlled by Mr. Spodek and his affiliates and were acquired by contribution to, or merger with, the Company and the Operating Partnership.
The Predecessor did not represent a legal entity. The Predecessor and its related assets and liabilities were under common control and were contributed to the Operating Partnership in connection with the Company’s IPO.
NPM was formed on November 17, 2004, for the purpose of managing commercial real estate properties.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company owned a portfolio of 852 postal properties located in 49 states. The Company’s properties are primarily leased to a single tenant, the United States Postal Service (the “USPS”).
In addition, through its taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”), Postal Realty Management TRS, LLC (“PRM”), the Company provides fee-based third party property management services for an additional 399 postal properties, which are owned by Mr. Spodek and his affiliates, his family members and their partners.
The Company, until May 15, 2019, was authorized to issue up to 600,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share. On May 15, 2019, in connection with the IPO, the Company amended its articles of incorporation such that the Company is currently authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, 27,206 shares of Class B common stock, $ 0.01 par value per share (the “Class B common stock” or “Voting Equivalency stock”), and up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
The Company believes it has been organized in conformity with, and has operated in a manner that has enabled it to meet the requirements for qualification as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code commencing with the Company’s short taxable year ended December 31, 2019. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent that it distributes its REIT taxable income for each tax year to its stockholders. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements.
Pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), the Company qualifies as an emerging growth company (“EGC”). An EGC may choose, as the Company has done, to take advantage of the extended private company transition period provided for complying with new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the financial position and results of operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, a VIE in which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.
A non-controlling interest is defined as the portion of the equity in an entity not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Non-controlling interests are required to be presented as a separate component of equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accordingly, the presentation of net income (loss) reflects the income attributed to controlling and non-controlling interests.
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial state ments.
This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. This interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2021. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes its estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Offering and Other Costs
Offering costs are recorded in “Total Stockholders’ Equity” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.
Deferred Costs
Financing costs related to the issuance of the Company’s secured long-term debt are deferred and amortized as an increase to interest expense over the term of the related debt instrument using the effective-interest method and are reported as a reduction of the related debt balance on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred financing costs related to the Company’s credit facility (the “2019 Credit Facility”), established under a credit agreement dated as of September 27, 2019, as amended (the “2019 Credit Agreement”), are deferred and amortized as an increase to interest expense over the term of the 2019 Credit Facility and are included in “Prepaid expenses and other assets, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Revenue Recognition
The Company has operating lease agreements with tenants, some of which contain provisions for future rental increases. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In addition, certain lease agreements provide for reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable costs, which are recorded on an accrual basis as part of “Rental income” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Fee and other income primarily consists of property management fees. These fees arise from contractual agreements with entities that are affiliated with the Company’s chief executive officer (the “CEO”). Management fee income is recognized as earned under the respective agreements.
Revenue from direct financing leases is recognized over the lease term using the effective interest rate method. At lease inception, the Company records an asset within investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, which represents the Company’s net investment in the direct financing lease. This initial net investment is determined by aggregating the total future minimum lease payments attributable to the direct financing lease and the estimated residual value of the property, if any, less unearned income. Over the lease term, the investment in the direct financing lease is reduced and income is recognized as revenue in “Fee and other income” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and produces a constant periodic rate of return on the investment in direct financing lease, net.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Cash, escrows and reserves, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to their short maturities.
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had an investment in a direct financing lease with a carrying value of $ 0.5 million and $ 0.5 million, respectively, and an effective interest rate of 7.89 % and 7.89 %, respectively. The carrying value of the investment in a direct financing lease approximated the fair market value as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s direct financing lease was categorized as a Level 3 basis (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures).
The fair value of the Company’s borrowings under its 2019 Credit Facility approximates carrying value. The fair value of the Company’s secured borrowings aggregated approximately $ 33.3 million and $ 47.1 million as compared to the principal balance of $ 33.2 million and $ 47.0 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value of the
8
Table of Contents
POSTAL REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED)
Company’s debt was categorized as a Level 3 basis (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). The fair value of these financial instruments was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the mortgage debt was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market rate.
Disclosure about fair value of assets and liabilities is based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2021 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
Impairment
The carrying value of real estate investments and related intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Impairment analyses will be based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods or market conditions change, the evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences may be material. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. No impairments were recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
Concentration of Credit Risks
As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s properties were leased primarily to a single tenant, the USPS. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, 18.9 % of the Company’s total rental income, or $ 17.5 million, was concentrated in Pennsylvania. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, no state had a concentration of rental income over 10% as a percentage of total rental income. The ability of the USPS to honor the terms of their leases is dependent upon regulatory, economic, environmental or competitive conditions in any of these areas and could have an effect on the Company’s overall business results.
The Company has deposited cash and maintains its bank deposits with large financial institutions in amounts that exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Equity Based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the Company to recognize an expense for the grant date fair value of equity-based awards. Equity-classified stock awards granted to employees and non-employees that have a service condition and/or a market condition are measured at fair value at date of grant and remeasured at fair value only upon a modification of the award. The Company will record forfeitures as they occur.
The Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each award, with the amount of compensation expense recognized at the end of a reporting period at least equal the portion of fair value of the respective award at grant date or modification date, as applicable, that has vested through that date. For awards with a market condition, compensation cost is not reversed if a market condition is not met so long as the requisite service has been rendered, as a market condition does not represent a vesting condition.
See Note 10. Stockholder’s Equity for further details.
Insurance Accounting
The Company carries liability insurance to mitigate its exposure to certain losses, including those relating to property damage and business interruption. The Company records the estimated amount of expected insurance proceeds for property damage and other losses incurred as an asset (typically a receivable from the insurer) and income up to the amount of the losses incurred when the amount is determinable and approved by insurance company. Any amount of insurance recovery in excess of the amount of the losses incurred is considered a gain contingency and is not recorded in fee and other income until the amount

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(CONTINUED)
is determinable and approved by insurance company. Insurance recoveries for business interruption for lost revenue or profit are accounted for as gain contingencies in their entirety, and therefore are not recorded in income until the amount is determinable and approved by insurance company.
Earnings per Share
The Company calculates net income (loss) per share based upon the weighted average shares outstanding less issued and outstanding non-vested shares of Class A common stock for the period beginning May 17, 2019. Diluted earnings per share is calculated after giving effect to all potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period. There were 3,497,577 and 2,855,102 potential shares outstanding related to OP Units and long term incentive units of the Operating Partnership (each, an “LTIP Unit” and collectively, the “LTIP Units”), which are redeemable for cash, or at the Company’s option, shares of Class A common stock on a one -for-one basis, held by non-controlling interests as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2, Leases; in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases — Targeted Improvements; and in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors. This group of ASUs is collectively referred to as Topic 842. Topic 842 supersedes the existing standards for lease accounting (Topic 840, Leases). Topic 842 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 as a result of its classification as an EGC.
The Company elected to utilize the following practical expedients provided by Topic 842, including: the package of practical expedients that allows an entity not to reassess upon adoption (i) whether an expired or existing contract contains a lease, (ii) whether a lease classification related to expired or existing lease arrangements, and (iii) whether costs incurred on expired or existing leases qualify as initial direct costs, and as a lessor, the practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, from the lease component if the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and associated lease component, and the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately.
Topic 842 requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheet through a right-of-use (“ROU”) model, in which a lessee records a ROU asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet. Leases that are less than 12 months do not need to be accounted for under the ROU model. Lessees will account for leases as financing or operating leases, with the classification affecting the timing and pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Lease expense will be recognized based on the effective interest method for leases accounted for as finance leases and on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease for leases accounted for as operating leases.
The accounting by a lessor under Topic 842 is largely unchanged from that of Topic 840. Under Topic 842, lessors will continue to account for leases as a sales-type, direct-financing, or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it is considered to transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee. A lease will be classified as direct-financing if risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control. Otherwise, the lease is treated as an operating lease. Topic 842 requires accounting for a transaction as a financing in a sale leaseback in certain circumstances, including when the seller-lessee is provided an option to purchase the property from the landlord at the tenant’s option. The Company expects that this provision could change the accounting for these types of leases in the future. Topic 842 also requires the Company to assess the probability of collecting substantially all of its rental revenue and make direct adjustments to rental revenue for operating lease receivables that are not believed to be collectible. Topic 842 also includes the concept of separating lease and non-lease components. Under Topic 842, non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, would be accounted for under Topic 606 and separated from the lease payments. However, the Company elected the lessor practical expedient allowing the Company to not separate these components when certain conditions are met. With this election, the Company combined tenant reimbursements with rental income on its Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2021. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company’s comparative statement of operations have been reclassified to conform to the new single component presentation of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, classified within rental income in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a right of use asset and a related operating lease liability, each totaling approximately $ 1.2 million, related to one office lease and three ground leases. The right of use lease

asset is included in “Prepaid expenses and other assets, net” and the operating lease liability is included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Future Application of Accounting Standards
In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and in November 2018 issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses . The guidance changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current ‘incurred loss’ model with an ‘expected loss’ approach. The Company will also be required to disclose information about how it developed the allowances, including changes in the factors that influenced the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. ASU No. 2018-19 excludes operating lease receivables from the scope of this guidance. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, as a result of its classification as an EGC. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Explanatory Notes :
(1) On September 27, 2019, the Company entered into the 2019 Credit Agreement, which provided for revolving commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $ 100.0 million with an accordion feature (the "Accordion Feature”) that permits the Company to borrow up to an additional $ 100.0 million for an aggregate total of $ 200.0 million, subject to customary terms and conditions, and a maturity date of September 27, 2023. On January 30, 2020, the Company amended the 2019 Credit Agreement in order to exercise a portion of the Accordion Feature to increase the maximum amount available under the 2019 Credit Facility to $ 150.0 million, subject to the borrowing base properties identified therein remaining unencumbered and subject to an enforceable lease. On June 25, 2020, the Company further amended the 2019 Credit Agreement to revise, among other items, certain definitions and borrowing base calculations to increase available capacity, as well as the restrictive covenant pertaining to consolidated tangible net worth. On November 24, 2020, the Company further amended the 2019 Credit Agreement to revise, among other items, certain definitions and borrowing base calculations to allow leases other than the USPS as a real property subject to certain to certain limitations.
On August 9, 2021, the Company entered into a $ 150.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility and a $ 50.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (together, the “2021 Credit Facilities”). In connection with entering into the 2021 Credit Facilities, the Company terminated the 2019 Credit Facility and paid off the outstanding loans thereunder. See Note 12 – “Subsequent Events” for a description of the material terms of the 2021 Credit Facilities.
The interest rates applicable to loans under the 2019 Credit Facility were, at the Company’s option, equal to either a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.7 % to 1.4 % per annum or LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.7 % to 2.4 % per annum, each based on a consolidated leverage ratio. In addition, the Company paid, for the period through and including the three months ended March 31, 2020, an unused facility fee on the revolving commitments under the 2019 Credit Facility of 0.75 % per annum for the first $ 100.0 million and 0.25 % per annum for the portion of revolving commitments exceeding $ 100.0 million, and, for the periods thereafter, an unused facility fee of 0.25 % per annum for the aggregate unused revolving commitments, with both periods utilizing calculations of daily unused commitments under the 2019 Credit Facility.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred $ 0.05 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively, of unused facility fees related to the 2019 Credit Facility. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred $ 0.1 million and $ 0.2 million, respectively, of unused facility fees related to the 2019 Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all of the 2019 Credit Facility’s debt covenants.

are operating leases with the exception of one that is a direct financing lease. The Company’s operating leases and direct financing lease are described below.
Rental income related to the Company’s leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. The Company’s total revenue includes fixed base rental payments provided under the lease and variable payments which principally consist of tenant expense reimbursements for certain property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. The Company elected the practical expedient to account for its lease and non-lease components as a single combined operating lease component under the new leasing standard. As a result, rental income and tenant reimbursements were aggregated into a single line within rental revenues in the consolidated statement of operations.

Lessee Accounting
As a lessee, the Company has ground and office leases which were classified as operating leases. On January 1, 2021 the Company adopted ASC 842 and recognized right-of-use assets of $ 1.2 million and lease liabilities of $ 1.2 million. The difference between the recorded right-of-use assets and lease liabilities is mainly due to the reclassification of the below market ground lease intangible asset which was included within the right-of-use assets recognized upon transition.
As of June 30, 2021, these leases had remaining terms, including renewal options, of 3 to 36 years and a weighted average remaining lease term of 20.3 years. Operating right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are included in “Prepaid expenses and other assets, net” and “Accounts payable, accrued expense and other” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows (in thousands):
As of
June 30,
2021
Right-of-use asset – operating leases
$ 1,124
Lease liability – operating leases

Operating lease liabilities are measured at the commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company used a weighted average discount rate of 4.25 % based on the yield of its current borrowings in determining its lease liabilities.
Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

Impact of COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic which has been ongoing. The resulting restrictions on travel and quarantines imposed have had a negative impact on the U.S. economy and business activity globally, the full impact of which is not yet known and may result in an adverse impact to the Company’s tenant and operating results. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company received 100 % of its rents and the Company believes there was no material impact caused by COVID-19 on the Company.
Note 7. Income Taxes

PRM was $ 0.03 million and $ 0.04 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, income tax expense related to PRM was $ 0.02 million and $ 0.03 million, respectively.
Other
In connection with the IPO, the indirect sole shareholder of UPH agreed to reimburse the Company for unrecognized tax benefits primarily related to the utilization of certain loss carryforwards at UPH. The Company recorded an indemnification asset in the same amount as the unrecognized tax benefits. The indirect sole shareholder of UPH will be responsible for all tax related matters related to UPH.
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $ 0.5 million and $ 0.4 million, respectively, which is inclusive of interest and penalties and a corresponding indemnification asset which is recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
On March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act was enacted to provide economic relief to companies and individuals in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Included in the CARES Act are tax provisions which increase allowable interest expense deductions for 2019 and 2020 and increase the ability for taxpayers to use net operating losses. While the Company does not expect these provisions to have a material impact on the Company’s taxable income or tax liabilities, the Company will continue to analyze the provisions of the CARES Act and related guidance as it is published.
Note 8. Related Party Transactions
Management Fee Income
PRM recognized management fee income of $ 0.4 million and $ 0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $ 0.2 million and $ 0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, from various properties which were affiliated with the Company's CEO.

The term of the Office Lease was five years commencing on October 1, 2018 (with rent commencing on January 1, 2019) and was set to expire on September 30, 2023. In connection with the IPO, the Office Lease was terminated. On May 17, 2019, the Company entered into a new lease for office space in Cedarhurst, New York with an entity affiliated with the Company’s CEO (the “New Lease”). Pursuant to the New Lease, the monthly rent is $ 15,000 subject to escalations. The term of the New Lease is five years commencing on May 17, 2019 and will expire on May 16, 2024.

Transfer of Real Property
On May 28, 2020, the Company completed the separation of deed and transfer of the real property attributable to a de minimis non-postal tenant that shares space in a building leased to the USPS. At the time of the IPO a property located in Milwaukee, WI, a portion of which is leased to the USPS, was contributed to the Company. It was intended that the non-postal portion of the property would revert back to an entity affiliated with Mr. Spodek once a separation of the deed was completed. The portion of the property leased to the USPS remains owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. The independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors ratified the no consideration transfer.
