Fiscal period ending 2025-12-31 versus 2024-12-31
— view filing on EDGAR →
Risk disclosures broadened and sharpened across debt, macro, regulatory, and operational dimensions, with no meaningful offsets. The most consequential additions are new credit-rating downgrade risk on a leveraged balance sheet and concrete near-term variable-rate exposure tied to actual Fed actions, compounding capital-access concerns already flagged by expanded capital-market risk enumeration. Secondary pressure comes from newly specific geographic demand concentration, tariff and labor cost pass-through risk to tenants, and a fresh AI operational/compliance risk layer.
