Key Considerations

• 📊 The 36 year dividend growth streak, reaffirmed again, supports the income angle of the investment case at the current price level.
• 📊 Watch how rent growth, acquisitions and the current P/E of about 20.3x, relative to the Retail REITs average of 27.6x, evolve alongside any changes in guidance.
• ⚠️ The flagged risk that interest payments are not well covered by earnings is important for a dividend focused thesis if financing costs change.
