PECO’s Response PECO has taken the following steps to maximize its financial flexibility and preserve cash given the uncertainty and fluidity of the COVID-19 pandemic: 1. Expense reductions have been implemented at the property and corporate levels. 2. Capital projects are being delayed to the extent possible. 3. We drew $200 million on our $500 million revolving credit facility. 4. Monthly distributions have been temporarily suspended. 5. The Share Repurchase Program for DDI (death, qualifying disability or determination of incompetence) has been temporarily suspended. The Share Repurchase Program for standard requests remains suspended. We expect to reevaluate distributions and share repurchases once the pandemic has stabilized and we are able to fully assess the impact of COVID-19 on our business. www.phillipsedison.com/investors 11


 
Alignment with Stockholders • Compensation for PECO’s chief executive officer and executive management team is highly incentive based • 83% of CEO compensation and 65% of other executive officers’ compensation is based on Company performance; as such, we believe this pandemic will have a negative impact on executive compensation • The distribution suspension affects executives as well (Company’s largest stockholder at ~8% combined) • In 2017, we merged with our external advisor to become a fully internally-managed REIT • No asset management fees, or any other management fees, are being paid to a third party www.phillipsedison.com/investors 12


 
Debt and Liquidity Profile • Our delevering strategy has given us flexibility and optionality • Revolving credit facility, maturing in October 2021, has extension options to October 2022 • Strong cash and liquidity position bolstered by recent draw on revolving credit facility • We have approximately $210 million in cash and approximately $250 million available on our revolving line of credit (as of April 1, 2020) • Solid relationships with lenders and maintaining continuous dialogue in this environment • We are in compliance with our debt covenants • No material maturities until 2022 Debt Maturity Profile As of April 1, 2020 Secured Property Debt $800M Unsecured Term Loans Assumes Line of Credit $600M revolver extension exercised $400M $200M $0M Cash 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Thereafter Balance www.phillipsedison.com/investors 13


 
Summary • Our strong performance and the execution of our strategic plans have improved our ability to handle this unprecedented situation • Best-in-class grocery anchored shopping center operators with 29 years of experience • Our investment thesis of owning well-located shopping centers anchored by leading grocers has resulted in strong historical performance • Immediate focus is to preserve cash as the duration and impact of COVID-19 on our neighbors remains uncertain • We are seeking to preserve cash to be positioned to capitalize on potential future growth opportunities • We are working relentlessly to protect PECO and the long-term value of our stockholders’ investment www.phillipsedison.com/investors 14

Non-GAAP Reconciliations Same-Center Net Operating Income (“NOI”) We present Pro Forma Same-Center NOI as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define NOI as total operating revenues, adjusted to exclude non-cash revenue items, less property operating expenses and real estate taxes. Same-center NOI represents the NOI for the properties that were wholly-owned and operational for the entire portion of both comparable reporting periods. For purposes of evaluating Same-Center NOI on a comparative basis, and in light of the Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (“PELP”) transaction on October 4, 2017, and Merger with REIT II on November 16, 2018, we are presenting Same-Center NOI on a pro forma basis as if each transaction had occurred on January 1st of the earliest comparable reporting period prior to their respective acquisition dates. We believe Pro Forma Same- Center NOI provides useful information to our investors about our financial and operating performance because it provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning and operating real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss). Because Pro Forma Same-Center NOI excludes the change in NOI from properties acquired or disposed after December 31st of the year prior to the earliest comparable reporting period, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates, and operating costs on properties that were operational for both comparable periods. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Pro Forma Same- Center NOI, and accordingly, our Pro Forma Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Pro Forma Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance because it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income (expense), or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties that could materially impact our results from operations. www.phillipsedison.com/investors 18

Non-GAAP Reconciliations Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Core FFO FFO is a non-GAAP performance financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) defines FFO as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and gains (or losses) from change in control, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for impairment losses on real estate and impairments of in-substance real estate investments in investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of the depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We calculate FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests in a manner consistent with the Nareit definition, with an additional adjustment made for noncontrolling interests that are not convertible into common stock. Core FFO is an additional performance financial measure used by us as FFO includes certain non-comparable items that affect our performance over time. We believe that Core FFO is helpful in assisting management and investors with the assessment of the sustainability of operating performance in future periods. We believe it is more reflective of our core operating performance and provides an additional measure to compare our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that may cause short-term fluctuations in net income (loss). To arrive at Core FFO, we adjust FFO attributable to stockholders and convertible noncontrolling interests to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization of corporate assets, gains or losses on the extinguishment or modification of debt, transaction and acquisition expenses, and amortization of unconsolidated joint venture basis differences. FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations under GAAP, as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. Core FFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate our business plan in the manner currently contemplated. Accordingly, FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and Core FFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements, and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and Core FFO, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs. www.phillipsedison.com/investors 22
