Business overview written from the company's own Form 10-K (Item 1), filed 2026-02-25 — refreshed whenever it files a new one. The figures above are current; see its SEC filings. ✓ From the 10-K
Plain-English: the Snapshot is the quick read — what it pays you (yield, dividend), how its cash flow looks (FFO/AFFO, Price/OCF) and how much debt it carries. Switch to Expert in the header to hide these explanations.
Snapshot
Reported FFO / AFFO / leverage are from the Q1 2026 earnings release (filed 2026-05-05) — 8-K, EX-99.1 ✓ Verified to filing.
Yield uses the latest declared dividend, annualized (latest regular payout × frequency; special/liquidating distributions excluded) — an announced-but-not-yet-declared change isn't reflected until it has an ex-date. FFO, AFFO and Net debt / Adj. EBITDA are the company's reported figures from its latest earnings 8-K. Price/OCF and payout use GAAP operating cash flow. NAV premium and credit ratings have no free source yet. See Methodology.
$10,000 invested
Illustrative income only, at today's price and latest declared dividend — it excludes price changes, dividend cuts and taxes. Not a forecast.
