Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“2022 Annual Report”). There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those described in our 2022 Annual Report except as disclosed in our 424(b)(3) prospectus, filed with the SEC on July 12, 2023, in connection with our pending acquisition of Urstadt Biddle, which contains, among other things, additional risk factors relating to such acquisition, and the additional risk factor identified during 2023 detailed below:
Unfavorable developments affecting the banking and financial services industry could adversely affect our business, liquidity and financial condition, and overall results of operations.
Actual events, concerns or speculation about disruption or instability in the banking and financial services industry, such as liquidity constraints, the failure of individual institutions, or the inability of individual institutions or the banking and financial service industry generally to meet their contractual obligations, could significantly impair our access to capital, delay access to deposits or other financial assets, or cause actual loss of funds subject to cash management arrangements. Similarly, these events, concerns or speculation could result in less favorable commercial financing terms, including higher interest rates or costs and tighter financial and operating covenants, or systemic limitations on access to credit and liquidity sources, thereby making it more difficult for us to acquire financing on acceptable terms or at all. Additionally, our tenants, critical vendors and business partners also could be adversely affected by these risks as described above, which in turn could result in their committing a breach or default under their contractual agreements with us, their insolvency or bankruptcy, or other adverse effects.
Any decline in available funding or access to our cash and liquidity resources, or non-compliance of banking and financial services counterparties with their contractual commitments to us could, among other risks, have material adverse impacts on our ability to meet our operating expenses and other financial needs, could result in breaches of our financial and/or contractual obligations, and could have material adverse impacts on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
