Fiscal period ending 2025-12-31 versus 2024-12-31

The risk profile has deteriorated materially across five or more distinct themes, driven by the pending Janus Living REIT offering — which introduces execution risk, governance conflicts, share-price exposure, and management distraction — compounded by a $1.1B (12.6%) debt increase, new macro headwinds (NIH cuts, tariffs, Medicaid/ACA changes, recession risk), and escalating regulatory and litigation exposures. The Janus Living transaction alone represents a structural strategic shift with cascading governance, capital, and operational consequences. A single easing (removal of a client-concentration risk) is insufficient to offset the breadth and severity of new worsening disclosures.
