The earnings call revealed a mixed outlook. Financial performance showed modest growth in revenue and AFFO, but the occupancy rate remained flat. Regulatory issues, supply chain challenges, and competitive pressures were highlighted as risks. The Q&A section noted uncertainties around a significant tenant's sale process and acquisition pipeline. Dividend increase is a positive, but lack of share buybacks and low share price affecting capital raising are concerns. Overall, the sentiment is balanced with slight positives and negatives, suggesting a neutral stock price movement over the next two weeks.
Total Revenue $30.1 million (2.5% increase year-over-year from $29.3 million in Q1 2024) due to incremental revenue from fourth quarter acquisitions, seasonal increases in operating expense reimbursements, and $165,000 of rent and interest payments from the geriatric psychiatric hospital operator.
