Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE: BNL) (“Broadstone,” “BNL,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a senior executive succession plan pursuant to which John Moragne, currently the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, will become Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and a member of the Board, effective February 28, 2023. President and CEO Chris Czarnecki will step down from his current role and the Board of Directors upon the effective date but will remain with the Company through January 31, 2024, in an advisory role as part of the planned transition.

Broadstone has a bright future and John is the clear choice to lead the Company as CEO into the next phase of its growth,” stated Chris Czarnecki. “I am immensely proud to have been part of such a dynamic team over the past 13 years and to have served as the Company’s CEO since 2017. I am tremendously grateful to have had the opportunity to build BNL into what it is today. After an exceptional year of operational performance and much thought and reflection, I feel that now is the appropriate time for me to step down to focus more on my personal interests and spend additional time with my family. I am confident that the Company will be in very capable hands moving forward into the next chapter. John has been a close colleague and friend of mine for many years, and I look forward to facilitating a seamless transition and supporting the entire team.

Accepting the appointment of CEO, Mr. Moragne said “I am grateful for this opportunity to lead Broadstone into the future with the same exceptional team I have worked alongside for the past seven years. I appreciate the confidence that Chris and the Board have placed in me to uphold our strong track record of execution and continue delivering long-term value for our shareholders.” Mr. Moragne has served as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer since 2018, leading the Company’s real estate investments, operations, and numerous other corporate functions, and previously served as the Company’s General Counsel from 2016 to 2018. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Moragne served as an M&A and securities attorney in private practice, including providing legal counsel to BNL since the Company’s inception in 2007.

On behalf of the Board, I want to thank Chris for his distinguished leadership and steadfast commitment to BNL throughout his 13-plus-year tenure with the Company,” said Chairman Laurie Hawkes. “Chris has been instrumental in BNL’s growth since its earliest days, including recruiting and developing the current leadership team. We congratulate him on the extraordinary success he has achieved on behalf of all our stakeholders.” Ms. Hawkes continued, “The Company is extremely fortunate to have such a deep bench of talent and experience. As we transition the Company’s leadership to John, the Board and I maintain complete confidence in and excitement for the future of BNL.

As part of the senior executive succession plan, Ryan Albano, currently the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, will transition to the role of President and Chief Operating Officer, effective February 28, 2023. In his new role, Mr. Albano will oversee the Company’s investment strategy and real estate operations, including acquisitions, portfolio management, asset management and dispositions, and credit functions. Mr. Albano has served as BNL’s Chief Financial Officer since February 2017 and is a member of our Investment Committee.

Additionally, Kevin Fennell, currently the Company’s Senior Vice President of Capital Markets & Credit Risk, will be promoted to Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective February 28, 2023. As Chief Financial Officer, Kevin will oversee capital markets strategy, investor relations, financial planning & analysis, accounting, internal audit, tax, and IT.
