Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide comprehensive financial statements, revenue, profit, cash flow, or debt metrics. The only specific financial data disclosed relates to the pricing of the DRP:
- Previous Reinvestment Purchase Price: $8.05
- New Reinvestment Purchase Price: $8.00
- Effective Date: October 1, 2019 (for the distribution payable on this date)
Material Changes
The material change reported is the reduction of the Reinvestment Purchase Price from $8.05 to $8.00. This adjustment was made to ensure the price at which shares are issued under the DRP does not exceed 2.5% above the Net Asset Value (NAV) per share, in accordance with the plan's governing rules.
Guidance, Outlook, and Management Commentary
Management commentary is limited to the rationale for the price adjustment. The Board of Directors or a committee thereof determines the Reinvestment Purchase Price in its sole discretion. The stated purpose of the decrease is to maintain compliance with the DRP provision that the price must not be more than 2.5% greater than the NAV Per Share determined within 48 hours prior to the distribution payment. No forward-looking guidance or risk factors beyond this specific event are disclosed in this filing.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the Net Asset Value (NAV) per share as of the distribution date to confirm the $8.00 price aligns with the 2.5% cap.
