  • Natural and Human Disruptions - Risk 1
    Actual or perceived threats associated with epidemics, pandemics or public health crises, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, could have a material adverse effect on our and our tenants' businesses, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity and ability to access the capital markets and satisfy debt service obligations and make distributions to our stockholders.

    Epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, that impact economic and market conditions, particularly in markets where our properties are located, and preventative measures taken to alleviate any public health crises, including "shelter-in-place" or "stay-at-home" orders, density limitations or social distancing measures issued by local, state or federal authorities, may have a material adverse effect on our and our tenants' businesses, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and ability to access capital markets and satisfy our debt service obligations, and make distributions to our stockholders, and may affect our ability as a net-lease real estate investment trust to acquire properties or lease properties to our tenants, who may be unable, as a result of any economic downturn occasioned by public health crises, to make rental payments when due. Although some local, state and other authorities were in varying stages of lifting or modifying some of these measures, some have already been forced to, and others may in the future, reinstitute these measures or impose new, more restrictive measures, if the risks, or the perception of the risks, related to the COVID-19 pandemic worsen at any time. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread has already had a significant adverse impact on economic and market conditions around the world in the first three quarters of 2020, including the United States and markets where our properties are located. Our restaurant tenants, as well as our tenants that operate other retail businesses, depend on in-person interactions with their customers to generate unit-level profitability, and an COVID-19 has decreased and may continue to decrease customers' willingness to frequent, and mandated "shelter-in-place" or "stay-at-home" orders, density limitations and social distancing measures have prevented and may continue to prevent customers from frequenting, our tenants' businesses, which has resulted in decreased profitability for our tenants and may continue to result in our tenants' inability to maintain profitability and make timely rental payments to us under their leases. In connection with the business stoppages at many of our properties, during the second quarter, we have agreed to lease concessions with certain tenants in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread. Whether we enter into any future lease amendments or grant any additional rent concessions or other lease-related relief will be made by our management team and board, as appropriate, based on each tenant's unique financial and operating situation. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread could further trigger a period of sustained global and U.S. economic downturn or recession. Moreover, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread could have significant adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to access the capital markets and satisfy our debt service obligations and make distributions to our stockholders in a variety of ways that are difficult to predict. Such adverse impacts could depend on, among other factors: - the financial condition and viability of tenants and our tenants' ability or willingness to pay rent in full on a timely basis;- state, local, federal and industry-initiated efforts that may adversely affect landlords, including us, and their ability to collect rent and/or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent;- our need to restructure leases with our tenants and our ability to do so on favorable terms or at all;- our ability to renew leases or re-lease available space in our proprieties on favorable terms or at all 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, including as a result of a general decrease in demand for our restaurant or retail space, deterioration in the economic and market conditions in markets where our properties are located or due to restrictions intended to prevent the spread of COVID-19 that frustrate our leasing activities, particularly in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many restaurant owners that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant uncertainty as to when and the conditions under which potential tenants will be able to operate in the future;- a severe and prolonged disruption and instability in the global financial markets, including the debt and equity capital markets, all of which have already experienced and may continue to experience significant volatility, or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions, as well as the recent significant decline in our share price from prices prior to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, may affect our or our tenants' ability to access capital necessary to fund our respective business operations or retire, replace or renew maturing liabilities on a timely basis, on attractive terms or at all and may adversely affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities, any of which could affect our and/or our tenants' ability to meet liquidity and capital expenditure requirements;- a refusal or failure of one or more lenders under our revolving credit facility to fund their respective financing commitment to us may affect our ability to access capital necessary to fund our business operations and to meet our liquidity and capital expenditure requirements;- the broader impact of the severe economic contraction due to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread, the resulting increase in unemployment that has occurred and its effect on consumer behavior, and negative consequences that will occur if these trends are not timely reversed;- complete or partial shutdowns of one or more of our tenants' facilities or distribution centers, temporary or long-term disruptions in our tenants' supply chains from local, national and international suppliers or delays in the delivery of products, services or other materials necessary for our tenants' operations, which could force our tenants to reduce, delay or eliminate offerings of their products and services, reduce or eliminate their revenues and liquidity and/or result in their bankruptcy or insolvency;- our and our tenants' ability to manage our respective businesses to the extent our and their management or personnel (including on-site employees) are impacted in significant numbers by the COVID-19 pandemic and are not willing, available or allowed to conduct work; and - our and our tenants' ability to ensure business continuity in the event our continuity of operations plan is not effective or improperly implemented or deployed during the COVID-19 pandemic. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or restrictions intended to prevent its spread. Nevertheless, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment and future developments in these and other areas present material risks and uncertainties with respect to our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to access the capital markets and satisfy our debt service obligations and make distributions to our stockholders. Moreover, to the extent any of these risks and uncertainties adversely impact us in the ways described above or otherwise, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described under the section entitled "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
