We intend these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we are including this statement for the purposes of complying with those safe harbor provisions, in each case, to the extent applicable. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend” or “project,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results and financial performance to be materially different from future results and financial performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: (i) macroeconomic conditions, including due to geopolitical instability, contemplated tariff increases and other trade restrictions, which may lead to a disruption of or lack of access to the capital markets, disruptions and instability in the banking and financial services industries and elevated inflation; (ii) our success in implementing our business strategy and our ability to identify, underwrite, finance, consummate and integrate diversifying acquisitions and investments; (iii) changes in general economic conditions or economic conditions in the markets in which we may, from time to time, compete, and their effect on our revenues, earnings and funding sources and those of our tenants; (iv) increases in our borrowing costs as a result of elevated inflation, changes in interest rates and other factors; (v) our ability to pay down, refinance, restructure or extend our indebtedness as it becomes due; (vi) our investments in joint ventures and unconsolidated entities, including our lack of sole decision-making authority and our reliance on our joint venture partners’ financial condition; (vii) our ability to obtain the financial results expected from our development and redevelopment projects; (viii) our tenants’ ability and willingness to renew their leases with us upon expiration, our ability to re-lease our properties on the same or better terms in the event of nonrenewal or in the event we exercise our right to replace an existing tenant, and obligations we may incur in connection with the replacement of an existing tenant; (ix) our potential liability for environmental matters; (x) damage to our properties from catastrophic weather and other natural events, and the physical effects of climate change; (xi) the economic, political and social impact of, and uncertainty surrounding, any future public health crisis, which may adversely affect us and our tenants’ business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity; (xii) uninsured losses; (xiii) our ability and willingness to maintain our qualification as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) in light of economic, market, legal, tax and other considerations; (xiv) information technology (“IT”) security breaches, including increased cybersecurity risks relating to the use of remote technology and artificial intelligence (“AI”); (xv) risks associated with our use of AI tools, which could result in reputational harm, and legal or regulatory liability; (xvi) the loss of key executives; and (xvii) the accuracy of our methodologies and estimates regarding corporate responsibility metrics, goals and targets, tenant willingness and ability to collaborate towards reporting such metrics and meeting such goals and targets, and the impact of governmental regulation on our corporate responsibility efforts.

The factors described above are not exhaustive and additional factors could adversely affect the Company’s future results and financial performance, including the risk factors discussed under the section captioned “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other periodic or current reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including those set forth under the headings “Item 1A.
