Other than the risk factor below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors associated with our business previously disclosed in Item 1A - "Risk Factors" in our 2024 Annual Report.

Actual and perceived changes in U.S. trade policies, including changes to existing trade agreements and heightened global trade tensions, and retaliatory responses from other countries may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by uncertainty and changes in U.S. trade policies, including tariffs, trade agreements or other trade restrictions imposed by the U.S. or other governments. In recent months, the U.S. government has imposed, and is considering imposing, tariffs and trade restrictions on certain goods produced outside of the United States, including a recent indication that a significant tariff on foreign-made films may be imposed. In response to these actions, certain foreign jurisdictions have imposed, or are considering imposing, tariffs and retaliatory restrictions on goods produced in the United States. Several tariff announcements have been followed by announcements of limited exemptions and temporary pauses. Changes in tariffs and trade restrictions can be, and have been, announced with little or no advance notice. These actions are unprecedented, have caused substantial uncertainty and volatility in financial markets and resulted in retaliatory countermeasures on U.S. goods by its trading partners.

Construction of our development projects requires access to steel and other materials. Any imposition of or increase in tariffs on imports of steel or other materials, as well as corresponding price increases for such materials available domestically, could increase our development project construction costs and our costs to maintain our existing properties. To the extent that we are unable to pass all or any such cost increases on to our customers, such cost increases could adversely affect our returns on investment. Higher materials costs could also diminish our ability to develop new projects at acceptable returns and limit our ability to pursue growth opportunities.

Tariffs or other trade restrictions, increasing trade tensions, or other changes in similar governmental policies could increase our operating costs, reduce discretionary consumer spending, cause disruptions or shortages in global supply chains and negatively impact the U.S., regional or local economies in which we, our tenants and their customers operate, any of which could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.
