Under the Stock Repurchase Program, we may repurchase shares of our common stock in open market transactions, through privately negotiated transactions, through one or more accelerated repurchases, or otherwise, in accordance with the terms set forth in Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal requirements.

General economic conditions and the concentration of our MH, RV, and UK properties in certain geographic areas may affect our ability to generate revenue.
Previous report
The market and economic conditions in our current markets generally, and specifically in metropolitan areas of our current markets, may significantly affect occupancy or rental rates. Occupancy and rental rates, in turn, may significantly affect our revenues, and if our properties do not generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, our cash flows and ability to pay or refinance our debt obligations could be adversely affected.
Previous report
As of March 31, 2025, 124 of our MH, RV, and UK communities, representing 25.9% of developed sites, are located in Florida; 85 communities, representing 19.2% of developed sites, are located in Michigan; 53 communities, representing 12.4% of developed sites, are located in the UK; 37 communities, representing 5.0% of developed sites, are located in California; and 29 communities, representing 6.2% of developed sites, are located in Texas. As a result of the geographic concentration of our MH, RV, and UK communities in Florida, Michigan, the UK, California and Texas, we are exposed to the risks of downturns in local economies or other local real estate market conditions which could adversely affect occupancy rates, rental rates and property values in these markets.
Previous report
Our revenue would also be adversely affected if tenants and guests were unable to pay rent or if sites were unable to be rented on favorable terms. If we were unable to promptly relet or renew the leases for a significant number of the sites, or if the rental rates upon such renewal or reletting were significantly lower than expected rates, then our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, certain expenditures associated with each property (such as real estate taxes and maintenance costs) generally are not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the property. Furthermore, real estate investments are relatively illiquid and, therefore, will tend to limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions.
Previous report
The following factors, among others, may adversely affect the revenues generated by our properties:
Previous report
•the international, national, and local economic climate which may be adversely impacted by, among other factors, plant closings, industry slowdowns, inflation, tariffs or threats of tariffs, trade wars, immigration issues, and supply chain disruptions;
Previous report

Previous report
•changes in foreign currency exchange rates, including between the U.S. dollar and each of the Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, and pound sterling;
Previous report
•the number of repossessed homes in a particular market;
Previous report
•the difficulty facing potential purchasers in obtaining affordable financing as a result of heightened lending criteria;
Previous report
•an increase or decrease in the rate of manufactured home repossessions which provide aggressively priced competition to new manufactured home sales;
Previous report
•the housing rental market which may limit the extent to which rents may be increased to meet increased expenses without decreasing occupancy rates;
Previous report
•the perceptions by prospective tenants of the safety, convenience and attractiveness of our MH properties, and the neighborhoods where they are located;
Previous report
•zoning or other environmental regulatory restrictions;
Previous report
•our ability to effectively manage, maintain, and insure our properties; and
Previous report
•the enactment of rent control laws or laws taxing the owners of manufactured homes.
Previous report
