Financing and Debt
Total acquisition costs were funded through a combination of cash on hand from the Company's September 2021 IPO and new debt financing under a Master Credit Facility with American Momentum Bank.
- Colorado Loan: $2,350,000 principal. Interest-only for 24 months; balloon payment due December 28, 2023. Variable rate (Prime) with a 3.25% floor.
- Illinois Loan: $1,550,000 principal. Interest-only for 24 months; balloon payment due December 2023. Variable rate (Prime) with a 3.25% floor.
- Guarantees: Both loans are guaranteed by the Operating Partnership and David Sobelman (CEO).
- Covenants: Borrowers must maintain a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) of at least 1.50 to 1.00 annually.
Material Changes and Lease Terms
The Company expanded its portfolio with two fully leased assets. Both properties feature triple-net lease structures where tenants are responsible for operating expenses, taxes, insurance, and maintenance.
- Colorado Lease: Current term ends March 31, 2027. Includes one five-year renewal option. Rent escalates to $388,368 upon renewal.
- Illinois Lease: Current term ends October 31, 2026. Includes one five-year renewal option. Rent escalates annually.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
The filing does not provide specific forward-looking guidance or management commentary beyond the transaction details. Key risks and contingencies identified include:
- Debt Covenants: Failure to maintain a 1.50 DSCR could trigger mandatory principal prepayments.
- Interest Rate Risk: Loans are variable-rate instruments tied to the Wall Street Journal Prime rate, subject to a 3.25% floor.
- Concentration Risk: Both properties are single-tenant, creating reliance on Best Buy and Fresenius Medical Care (guarantor for WSKC Dialysis).
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the current status of the Master Credit Facility with American Momentum Bank and any remaining borrowing capacity.
- Confirm the actual Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) for the new properties to ensure compliance with the 1.50 covenant.
- Review the full text of the lease agreements (Exhibits 10.4 and 10.10) for specific termination rights or rent abatement clauses.
- Assess the impact of the variable interest rate floor (3.25%) on future cash flow projections given current market rates.
- Check subsequent filings for any updates on the pro forma financial information referenced in Exhibit 99.5.
