New in FY2020

| | ● | market disruptions due to global pandemics; |

New in FY2020

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Footnote 9 to the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K for additional discussion regarding the shares held by the Company of Albertsons Companies, Inc. (“ACI”).

New in FY2020

Our investments in marketable securities are subject to specific risks relating to the particular issuer of the securities, including the financial condition and business outlook of the issuer, which may result in significant losses to us.

New in FY2020

Marketable securities are generally unsecured and may also be subordinated to other obligations of the issuer.

New in FY2020

As a result, investments in marketable securities are subject to risks of:

New in FY2020

| | ● | limited liquidity in the secondary trading market; |

New in FY2020

| | ● | substantial market price volatility, resulting from changes in prevailing interest rates; |

New in FY2020

| | ● | subordination to the prior claims of banks and other senior lenders to the issuer; |

New in FY2020

| | ● | the possibility that earnings of the issuer may be insufficient to meet its debt service and distribution obligations; and |

New in FY2020

| | ● | the declining creditworthiness and potential for insolvency of the issuer during periods of rising interest rates and economic downturn. |

New in FY2020

These risks may adversely affect the value of outstanding marketable securities and the ability of the issuers to make distribution payments.

New in FY2020

Our investments in mortgage receivables are subject to specific risks relating to the borrower and the underlying property.

New in FY2020

In the event of a default by a borrower, it may be necessary for us to foreclose our mortgage or engage in costly negotiations.

New in FY2020

Delays in liquidating defaulted mortgage loans and repossessing and selling the underlying properties could reduce our investment returns.

New in FY2020

Furthermore, in the event of default, the actual value of the property securing the mortgage may decrease.

New in FY2020

A decline in real estate values will adversely affect the value of our loans and the value of the mortgages securing our loans.

New in FY2020

Our mortgage receivables may be or become subordinated to mechanics' or materialmen's liens or property tax liens.

New in FY2020

In these instances, we may need to protect a particular investment by making payments to maintain the current status of a prior lien or discharge it entirely.

New in FY2020

Where that occurs, the total amount we recover may be less than our total investment, resulting in a loss.

New in FY2020

In the event of a major loan default or several loan defaults resulting in losses, our investments in mortgage receivables would be materially and adversely affected.

New in FY2020

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, employees working remotely has amplified certain risks to our business.

New in FY2020

The number of points of potential cyberattack, such as laptops and mobile devices have increased and any failure to effectively manage these risks, including to timely identify and appropriately respond to any cyberattacks or other disruption to our technology infrastructure, may adversely affect our business.

New in FY2020

Cyber criminals are targeting their attacks on individual employees, utilizing interest in pandemic related information to increase business email compromise scams designed to trick victims into transferring sensitive data or funds, or steal credentials that compromise information systems which extend to multiple platforms throughout the Company.

New in FY2020

We could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to address any data security incident or breach, which may not be covered or fully covered by our insurance and which may involve payments for investigations, forensic analyses, legal advice, public relations advice, system repair or replacement, or other services.

New in FY2020

| | ● | subject us to regulatory enforcement; |

New in FY2020

The Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or stock price has and may continue to be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and such impact could be material.

New in FY2020

In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 was recognized as a pandemic by the WHO.

New in FY2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has had a significant adverse effect on businesses, economies and financial markets worldwide, and has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets.

New in FY2020

There is significant uncertainty around the extent and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its long-term impact on the U.S. economy.

New in FY2020

Our business and the businesses of our tenants have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken to contain or prevent its spread.

New in FY2020

A substantial number of tenants have temporarily or permanently closed their businesses, have shortened their operating hours or offered reduced services.

New in FY2020

As a result, the Company has also had a substantial number of tenants that have made late or partial rent payments, requested a deferral of rent payments, forgiveness of rent payments or defaulted on rent payments, and it is likely that more of our tenants will be similarly impacted in the future.

New in FY2020

Impacts of COVID-19 could also result in the complete or partial closure of one or more of our tenants’ manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, temporary or long-term disruption in our tenants’ supply chains from local and international suppliers, and/or delays in the delivery of our tenants’ inventory.

New in FY2020

Even after governmental restrictions are lifted, our tenants may continue to be impacted by economic conditions resulting from COVID-19 or public perception of the risk of COVID-19, which could adversely affect foot traffic to our tenants’ businesses and our tenants’ ability to adequately staff their businesses.

New in FY2020

A downturn in our tenants’ businesses that significantly weakens their financial condition could cause them to delay lease commencements or decline to extend or renew leases upon expiration and could lead to additional failures to make rental payments when due, store closures or bankruptcies, and we may be unable to collect past due balances under relevant leases.

New in FY2020

We have received requests for rent relief from some of our tenants.

New in FY2020

We are assessing these requests on a case-by-case basis and have agreed, and may continue to agree, to certain relief.

New in FY2020

It is likely there will be additional requests for relief in the future.

New in FY2020

In addition, like many other companies, due to government mandates, we have instructed our employees to work from home, which, especially if this persists for a prolonged period of time, may have an adverse impact on our employees, operations and systems.

New in FY2020

Extended periods of remote work arrangements could strain our business continuity plans, introduce operational risk, including but not limited to cybersecurity risks, and impair our ability to manage our business.

Dropped from FY2019

Unsuccessful real estate under development activities or a slowdown in real estate under development activities could have a direct impact on our growth, results of operations and cash flows.

Dropped from FY2019

Real estate under development is a component of our operating and investment strategy.

Dropped from FY2019

We intend to continue pursuing select real estate under development opportunities for long-term investment and construction of retail, residential and/or mixed-use properties as opportunities arise.

Dropped from FY2019

We expect to phase in construction until sufficient preleasing is reached.

Dropped from FY2019

Our real estate under development and construction activities include the following risks:

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | we may abandon real estate under development opportunities after expending resources and could lose all or part of our investment in such opportunities, including loss of deposits or failure to recover expenses already incurred; |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | development, construction or operating costs, including increased interest rates and higher materials, transportation, labor, leasing or other costs, may exceed our original estimates; |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed property may not meet our expectations and may not be sufficient to make the property profitable; |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | construction or permanent financing may not be available to us on favorable terms or at all; |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | we may not complete construction and lease-up on schedule due to a variety of factors including construction delays or contractor changes, resulting in increased expenses and construction costs or tenants or operators with the right to terminate pre-construction leases; and |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | we may not be able to obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, land use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations. |

Dropped from FY2019

Additionally, new real estate under development activities typically require substantial time and attention from management, and the time frame required for development, construction and lease-up of these properties could require several years to realize any significant cash return.

Dropped from FY2019

Although we have generally scored highly in these metrics to date, there can be no assurance that we will continue to score highly in the future.

Dropped from FY2019

Moreover, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted on December 22, 2017 (the "2017 Tax Legislation"), significantly changed the U.S. federal income taxation of U.S. businesses and their owners, including REITs and their stockholders.

Dropped from FY2019

The 2017 Tax Legislation remains unclear in many respects and could be subject to potential amendments and technical corrections, as well as interpretations and implementing regulations by the Treasury and IRS, any of which could lessen or increase certain adverse impacts of the legislation.

Dropped from FY2019

In addition, it remains unclear how these U.S. federal income tax changes will affect state and local taxation, which often uses U.S. federal taxable income as a starting point for computing state and local tax liabilities.

Dropped from FY2019

While some of the changes made by the 2017 Tax Legislation may adversely affect us in one or more reporting periods and prospectively, other changes may be beneficial on a going forward basis.

Dropped from FY2019

We continue to work with our tax advisors to determine the full impact that the 2017 Tax Legislation as a whole will have on us.

Dropped from FY2019

We urge our investors to consult with their legal and tax advisors with respect to such legislation and the potential tax consequences of investing in our common stock.

New in FY2020

When evaluating the probability of the collection of the lessee’s total accounts receivable, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable balance on a lease-by-lease basis, the Company considered the effects COVID-19 has had on its tenants, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable.

New in FY2020

The Company’s analysis of its accounts receivable included (i) customer credit worthiness, (ii) assessment of risk associated with the tenant, and (iii) current economic trends.

New in FY2020

In addition to the lease-specific collectability assessment performed under Topic 842, the analysis also recognizes a general reserve, as a reduction to Revenues from rental properties, for its portfolio of operating lease receivables which are not expected to be fully collectible based on the Company’s historical and current collection experience and the potential for settlement of arrears.

New in FY2020

Although the Company estimates uncollectible receivables and provides for them through charges against revenues from rental properties, actual results may differ from those estimates.

_COVID-19 Pandemic_

New in FY2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected businesses, economies and financial markets worldwide, and has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets.

New in FY2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the retail sector in which the Company operates and, if the effects of the pandemic are prolonged, it could continue to have a significant adverse impact on the underlying industries of many of the Company’s tenants.

New in FY2020

The majority of the Company’s tenants and their operations have been impacted, and may continue to be impacted, affecting their ability to pay rent.

New in FY2020

Through the duration of the pandemic a substantial number of tenants have had to temporarily or permanently close their business, shortened their operating hours or offer reduced services for some period of time.

New in FY2020

As a result of the current economic uncertainty and the impact to many of the Company’s tenants, the Company has taken important steps to offer its support, including:

New in FY2020

| | ● | The Company has worked, and continues to work, with these tenants to grant rent deferrals or rent waivers on a lease by lease basis. |

New in FY2020

| | ● | The Company established a Tenant Assistance Program to assist small business tenants in identifying and applying for federal and state aid to help support their businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. In partnership with advisory firms the Company provides assistance with the application process at the Company’s expense. These firms assist tenants in identifying suitable loan programs, identifying potential lending institutions, and preparing and submitting applications. |

New in FY2020

| | ● | The Company is closely monitoring recommendations and mandates of federal, state and local governments, and health authorities. |

New in FY2020

| | ● | At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S., the Company immediately increased the frequency and intensity of its janitorial services to help prevent the spread of the virus. Areas such as public bathrooms, interior concourses and hallways, vestibules and shared doors, and elevators and escalators are being sanitized multiple times per day. |

New in FY2020

| | ● | The Company’s teams worked to provide additional assistance in the communities where it operates, finding creative ways to use its conveniently located shopping centers during this difficult time. The Company fast-tracked the approval of drive-thru testing centers, blood-drive locations, and school lunch pick-ups. |

New in FY2020

| | ● | The Company launched the Kimco Curbside Pickup™ program designating dedicated parking spots for curbside merchandise pickup at its shopping centers for use by all tenants and their customers. |

New in FY2020

As of December 31, 2020, mandated or voluntary tenant closures represented 2.7% of annual base rent for all of the Company's wholly owned locations and the Company's share of ownership in joint ventures (collectively, the "pro-rata annual base rent").

New in FY2020

As a result, the Company has also had a substantial number of tenants that have made late or partial rent payments, requested a deferral of rent payments, forgiveness of rent payments or defaulted on rent payments, and it is likely that more of the Company’s tenants will be similarly impacted in the future.

New in FY2020

From the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company granted selective deferrals for approximately 9%, of its pro-rata annual base rent, forgave rental payments aggregating $13.7 million of pro-rata rents.

New in FY2020

Collection rates have steadily increased from 74% of its pro-rata annual base rent for second quarter ended June 30, 2020 to 92% for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020, with rates increasing each quarter.

New in FY2020

The Company continues to negotiate for the payment of the remaining rents not yet collected as well as work with tenants to grant rent waivers on a lease by lease basis.

New in FY2020

The deferrals generally have a repayment period of six to 18 months.

New in FY2020

The Company has also collected 91% of the pro-rata annual base rent for the month of January 2021.

New in FY2020

The Company considered the impacts COVID-19 has had on its tenants when evaluating the adequacy of the collectability of the lessee’s total accounts receivable balance, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable.

New in FY2020

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company’s revenue was reduced by $81.0 million associated with potentially uncollectible revenues including revenues from tenants that are being accounted for on a cash basis, which includes $15.2 million for straight-line rent receivables, primarily attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic.

New in FY2020

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the Company has seen an increase in the number of tenants filing for bankruptcy, some of which emerged from bankruptcy prior to December 31, 2020.

New in FY2020

As of December 31, 2020, there were 38 leases or 0.7% of pro-rata annual base rent, within the Company’s portfolio associated with tenants in bankruptcy.

New in FY2020

The Company continues to evaluate the impact these bankruptcy filings have or will have on collections, vacancies and future rental income.

New in FY2020

Management’s estimate of the collectability of accrued rents and accounts receivable is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

New in FY2020

The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and will continue to assess the collectability of its tenant accounts receivables.

New in FY2020

As such, the Company may determine that further adjustments to its accounts receivable may be required in the future, and such amounts may be material.

New in FY2020

The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s future results could be significant and will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19, the success of governmental, business and individual actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to COVID-19, the impact of COVID-19 on economic activity, the effect of COVID-19 on the Company’s tenants and their businesses, the ability of tenants to make their rental payments and any additional closures of tenants’ businesses.

New in FY2020

The Company continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, tenants and industry as a whole.

New in FY2020

The magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s operations and liquidity remains uncertain as this pandemic continues to evolve globally and within the United States.

New in FY2020

Management cannot, at this point, estimate ultimate losses related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

New in FY2020

The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and will assess its asset portfolio for any impairment indicators.

New in FY2020

If the Company determines that any of its assets are impaired, the Company would be required to take impairment charges, and such amounts could be material.

New in FY2020

See Footnote 6 to the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding impairment charges.

_Operating and maintenance_ _–_

Dropped from FY2019

COVID-19 Pandemic

New in FY2020

In March 2020, COVID-19 was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (“WHO”) and declared a national emergency throughout the United States.

New in FY2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected businesses, economies, and financial markets worldwide and has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets.

New in FY2020

The impact of COVID-19 on the retail industry for both landlords and tenants has been wide ranging, including, but not limited to, the temporary closures of many businesses, "shelter in place" orders, social distancing guidelines and other governmental, business and individual actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

New in FY2020

There has also been reduced consumer spending due to job losses, government restrictions in response to COVID-19 and other effects attributable to COVID-19.

New in FY2020

The Company is aware of the critical role its shopping centers play in the communities they serve, often providing access to essential goods and services such as groceries, drug stores, and medical care.

New in FY2020

The Company’s shopping centers have remained open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to provide access to these essential goods and services, and the Company has taken steps to protect the shoppers and tenants at its sites, following the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) and the WHO.

New in FY2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant economic uncertainty and volatility and has considerably impacted the Company’s stakeholders.

New in FY2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows since its onset.

New in FY2020

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, will depend on future developments, which continue to be highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

New in FY2020

The Company’s business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that the Company is not able to predict, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, governmental, business and individual actions that have been and continue to be, taken in response to the pandemic, the distribution and effectiveness of vaccines, the impact on economic activity from the pandemic and actions taken in response, the effect on the Company’s tenants and their businesses, the ability of tenants to make their rental payments, additional closures of tenants’ businesses and the impact of opening and reclosing of communities in response to COVID-19.

New in FY2020

Any of these events could materially adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or stock price.

New in FY2020

The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and will assess its asset portfolio for any impairment indicators.

New in FY2020

In addition, the Company will continue to monitor for any material or adverse effects resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

New in FY2020

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s shopping centers have remained open; however, a substantial number of tenants had or continue to have temporarily or permanently closed their businesses.

New in FY2020

Others had, or continue to have, shortened their operating hours or offered reduced services.

New in FY2020

The Company has also had a substantial number of tenants that have made late or partial rent payments, requested a deferral of rent payments, forgiveness of rent payments or defaulted on rent payments.

New in FY2020

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the Company has seen an increase in the number of tenants filing for bankruptcy, some of which emerged from bankruptcy prior to December 31, 2020.

New in FY2020

The Company continues to evaluate the impact bankruptcy filings have or will have on collections, vacancies and future rental income.

New in FY2020

As a result of this transformation, the Company now owns a predominantly grocery-anchored portfolio clustered in the nation’s top markets which has positioned the Company to address many of the challenges brought upon by COVID-19.

New in FY2020

In order to add density to existing properties, the Company has obtained multi-family entitlements for 4,984 units of which 1,266 units have been constructed as of December 31, 2020.

_Strategy Overview_

Dropped from FY2019

The Company’s strategy is to continue to focus on its three core principles:

Dropped from FY2019

| | 1) | Portfolio Quality - improving the quality and locations of its portfolio by maintaining high quality assets, tightly clustered in major metro markets that provide multiple growth levers. |

Dropped from FY2019

| | 2) | Net Asset Value Creation - harvesting the unrealized value in its portfolio through a curated collection of mixed-use projects, and |

Dropped from FY2019

| | 3) | Financial Strength - maintaining a strong balance sheet with ample liquidity and financial flexibility. |

Dropped from FY2019

_Operating Strateg__ies_

Dropped from FY2019

The Company’s operating strategies are to (i) own and operate its shopping center properties at their highest potential through maximizing and maintaining rental income and occupancy levels, (ii) attract local area customers to its shopping centers, which offer buy online and pick up in store, off-price merchandise and day-to-day necessities rather than high-priced luxury items, and (iii) maintain a strong balance sheet.

Dropped from FY2019

_Investment Strategies_

Dropped from FY2019

The Company’s investment strategy is to invest capital into its high-quality assets which are tightly clustered in major metro markets that provide opportunity for growth while disposing of lesser quality assets in less desirable locations.

Dropped from FY2019

Through this strategy, the Company has transformed its portfolio and will continue these efforts as deemed necessary to maximize the quality and growth of its portfolio.

Dropped from FY2019

Property acquisitions are focused in major metro areas allowing tenants to generate higher foot traffic resulting in higher sales volume accompanied with a potential for a mixed use component.

Dropped from FY2019

The Company’s investment strategy also includes the retail re-tenanting, renovation and expansion of its existing centers and acquired centers, while also pursuing redevelopment opportunities to increase overall value within its portfolio.

Dropped from FY2019

Additionally, the Company may selectively acquire land parcels in its key markets for real estate development projects for long-term investment.

Dropped from FY2019

The Company may consider investments in other real estate sectors and in geographic markets where it does not presently operate should suitable opportunities arise.

Dropped from FY2019

The Company also continues to simplify its business by reducing the number of joint venture investments.

Dropped from FY2019

As part of the Company’s investment strategy each property is evaluated for its highest and best use, which may include residential and mixed-use components.

Dropped from FY2019

In addition, the Company may consider other opportunistic investments related to retailer controlled real estate such as repositioning underperforming retail locations, retail real estate financing and bankruptcy transaction support.

Dropped from FY2019

The Company has a capital recycling program which provides for the disposition of certain lesser quality assets.

Dropped from FY2019

If the estimated fair value for any of these assets is less than their net carrying values, the Company would be required to take impairment charges and such amounts could be material.

Dropped from FY2019

The Company may either purchase or lease income-producing properties in the future and may also participate with other entities in property ownership through partnerships, joint ventures or similar types of co-ownership.

Dropped from FY2019

Equity investments may be subject to existing mortgage financing and/or other indebtedness.

Dropped from FY2019

Financing or other indebtedness may be incurred simultaneously or subsequently in connection with such investments.

Dropped from FY2019

Any such financing or indebtedness would have priority over the Company’s equity interest in such property.

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | Embrace the Future of Retail - foster a sense of place at our shopping centers, creating people-centered properties that are more convenient and accessible |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | Engage Our Local Communities - make a positive impact and be known in the communities where we operate and live |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | Lead in Operations & Resiliency - maximize efficiency of operations and protect our assets from disruption by climate, security and other disruptions |

Dropped from FY2019

| | ● | Foster an Engaged, Inclusive & Ethical Team - cultivate high levels of employee satisfaction and improve diversity of management |

_Estimate of Collectability of Accounts Receivable, Including the Corresponding Straight-Line Rent Receivable_

New in FY2020

As described in Notes 1 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's accounts receivable and notes receivable, net of $219.2 million as of December 31, 2020, including the corresponding straight- line rent receivable, was reduced by $81.0 million during the year associated with potentially uncollectible receivables, which included $15.2 million for straight-line rent receivables.

New in FY2020

The Company’s analysis of its accounts receivable included (i) customer credit worthiness, (ii) assessment of risk associated with the tenant, and (iii) current economic trends.

New in FY2020

This analysis also recognizes a general reserve, as a reduction to revenues from rental properties, for its portfolio of operating lease receivables which are not expected to be fully collectible based on the Company’s historical and current collection experience and the potential for settlement of arrears.

New in FY2020

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the estimate of the collectability of accounts receivable, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable, is a critical audit matter is (i) the significant judgment by management when determining the estimate of collectability of accounts receivable, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable, which led to (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to management’s analysis of the customer credit worthiness, risk associated with the tenant, and current economic trends.

New in FY2020

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

New in FY2020

Evaluating the reasonableness of the customer credit worthiness, risk associated with the tenant, and current economic trends involved evaluating whether they were reasonable considering (i) the current and past performance of the tenant and the customer credit; and (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data.

Coronavirus Disease _2019_ ("COVID-_19"_) Pandemic

New in FY2020

The COVID-_19_ pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected businesses, economies, and financial markets worldwide and has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets.

New in FY2020

The impact of COVID-_19_ on the retail industry for both landlords and tenants has been wide ranging, including, but _not_ limited to, the temporary closures of many businesses, "shelter in place" orders, social distancing guidelines and other governmental, business and individual actions taken in response to the COVID-_19_ pandemic.

New in FY2020

There has also been reduced consumer spending due to job losses, government restrictions in response to COVID-_19_ and other effects attributable to COVID-_19._

New in FY2020

The COVID-_19_ pandemic has created significant economic uncertainty and volatility and has considerably impacted the Company’s stakeholders.

New in FY2020

The COVID-_19_ pandemic has impacted the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows since its onset.

New in FY2020

The extent to which the COVID-_19_ pandemic will continue to impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, will depend on future developments, which continue to be highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

New in FY2020

The Company’s business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that the Company is _not_ able to predict, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, governmental, business and individual actions that have been and continue to be, taken in response to the pandemic, the distribution and effectiveness of vaccines, the impact on economic activity from the pandemic and actions taken in response, the effect on the Company’s tenants and their businesses, the ability of tenants to make their rental payments, additional closures of tenants’ businesses and the impact of opening and reclosing of communities in response to COVID-_19._ Any of these events could materially adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or stock price.

New in FY2020

The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-_19_ pandemic and will assess its asset portfolio for any impairment indicators.
