Headwinds
- The Company does not provide guidance on net income.
- The Company only provides guidance on total AFFO (and Real Estate AFFO) and does not provide a reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to net income due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliation as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance.
- Examples of such items include impairments of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions.
- The proposed merger and related transactions are subject to the satisfaction of a number of closing conditions set forth in the merger agreement, including approval by the stockholders of CPA:18.
- There can be no assurance that the merger will be completed at such time or at all.
