Tailwinds

  • Introduction of 2025 AFFO guidance, indicating confidence in future performance.

  • Well-positioned for continued internal and external growth.
  • Confidence in the strength of partnership with the Postal Service.

Headwinds

  • Guidance does not provide reconciliation to GAAP due to inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts.
  • Potential for impairments of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions to affect net income.
  • Certain non-recurring items may significantly affect net income but are generally adjusted for in AFFO.
  • The dollar amounts of these items could be significant and materially impact GAAP results.
  • No specific negative factors were highlighted in the guidance summary, but general market risks apply.
