Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Total revenues increased by 12% ($1.9 million) year-over-year, driven by an 11% increase in rental revenues due to improved occupancy and a stronger performing portfolio.
- Profitability Turnaround: The Company reported a net income of $0.4 million, a significant improvement from a net loss of $1.3 million in Q1 2025. This was aided by a $1.0 million gain on the sale of five real estate properties.
- Expense Increases: General and administrative expenses rose 29% ($0.8 million) primarily due to increased stock-based compensation ($0.4 million) and professional fees. Impairment losses increased 90% to $0.8 million, driven by the sale of vacant properties to redeploy capital.
- Capital Structure: The Company issued 250,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, raising approximately $23.9 million in net proceeds. Total debt decreased slightly as the Company repaid $20.0 million while drawing $18.5 million.

Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the sustainability of the 11% rental revenue growth and occupancy rates (98.7%) in the current economic environment.
- Review the terms of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, specifically the 6.75% dividend rate and conversion mechanics, to assess dilution risks.
- Monitor the utilization of the $75.0 million ATM program and the $75.0 million repurchase program for signals on management's view of share price.
- Assess the impact of the $0.8 million impairment loss and the strategy of selling vacant properties to redeploy capital.
- Confirm the Company's compliance with debt covenants, specifically the Total Leverage Ratio (currently 5.3x Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre vs. 6.0% covenant limit).
