Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc. (IIPR - Free Report) , focused on the acquisition, ownership and management of specialized industrial properties leased to experienced, state-licensed operators for their regulated cannabis facilities, is likely to keep gaining from its acquisitions and expansion efforts.
In the operating update released in October, management noted that since the beginning of the third quarter through Oct 1, it has made four acquisitions — comprising three new properties and an additional land expansion at an existing property — for properties in Illinois, Maryland, Missouri and New York.
The REIT’s expansion efforts in the third quarter resulted in the company owning 75 properties as of Oct 1, 2021. The properties aggregate 7.3 million rentable square feet, including 2.7 million rentable square feet under development/redevelopment, which were fully leased, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 16.7 years.
Moreover, it has executed three lease amendments to provide additional improvement allowances at properties located in Illinois, Maryland and Michigan. With these deals, the company has not only established a new tenant relationship with Calyx Peak, Inc., but also expanded its existing ties with 4Front Ventures Corp., Ascend Wellness Holdings, Inc., Goodness Growth Holdings, Inc., Green Peak Industries LLC (Skymint), Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. and Holistic Industries, Inc.
The company, as of Oct 1, 2021, has invested a total of $1.4 billion and committed another $417.5 million to reimburse some tenants and sellers for the accomplishment of construction and improvements at its properties.
However, the company did not carry out any capital raising activities during the above-mentioned period.
The legalization of marijuana for medical use across several states in the United States as well as the permission of adult consumption in some has opened up opportunities for the cannabis industry. Therefore, with states signaling the green light for cannabis, Innovative Industrial Properties has incentives to partner with experienced medical-use cannabis operators, and serve as a vital source of capital by acquiring and leasing back their real-estate assets. Its strategy is to acquire the existing, redeveloped and under-development industrial buildings, including attached enclosed greenhouse facilities.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for OUTFRONT Media Inc.’s (OUT - Free Report) 2021 FFO per share has moved 8% north to 94 cents over the past two months. The company sports a Zacks Rank of 1, currently.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Extra Space Storage Inc.’s (EXR - Free Report) current-year FFO per share has moved up 3.6% to $6.57 in the past two months. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank of 2 (Buy).
Terreno Realty Corporation (TRNO - Free Report) carries a Zacks Rank of 2, at present. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the ongoing year’s FFO per share has been revised marginally upward to $1.70 over the past month.
Note: Anything related to earnings presented in this write-up represent funds from operations (FFO) — a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs.
