    We may be subject to shareholder activism or proxy contests, which could adversely affect our business and stock price.

    We may become subject to shareholder activism, proxy contests or other campaigns by investors seeking to influence our strategic direction, capital allocation, governance practices or board composition. Responding to such actions could require significant time and attention from our Board of Directors and management team and could result in substantial legal, advisory and other expenses. In addition, the perceived or actual uncertainty associated with shareholder activism may create instability within the Company, disrupt our strategic initiatives, and adversely affect our relationships with strategic partners, employees and other stakeholders. These actions could also result in volatility in the market price of our Common Stock.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    Concentrated ownership of our Common Stock creates a risk of sudden change in our share price

    As of March 19, 2026, directors and members of our executive management team beneficially owned or controlled approximately 21.8% of our Common Stock. Investors who purchase our Common Stock may be subject to certain risks due to the concentrated ownership of our Common Stock. The sale by any of our large shareholders of a significant portion of that shareholder's holdings could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock. In addition, the registration and sale of any significant number of additional shares of our Common Stock will have the immediate effect of increasing the public float of our Common Stock and any such increase may cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline or fluctuate significantly.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    Only a limited market exists for our Common Stock, which could lead to price volatility

    The limited trading market for our Common Stock may cause fluctuations in the market value of our Common Stock to be exaggerated, leading to price volatility in excess of that which would occur in a more active trading market of our Common Stock.

  • Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 4
    Our multifamily development, Terra Vista at Tejon, is in its initial lease-up phase and may not achieve anticipated occupancy levels or rental rates.

    Terra Vista at Tejon, our 228-unit multifamily community completed in 2025, is currently in its initial lease-up phase and has not yet reached stabilized occupancy. During lease-up, operating expenses are generally incurred at levels consistent with stabilized operations, while rental revenues increase gradually as occupancy builds. As a result, the property may generate operating losses until stabilization is achieved. There can be no assurance that Terra Vista will achieve anticipated occupancy levels, rental rates, or absorption timelines. Demand for rental housing in the greater Bakersfield submarkets may be affected by local employment conditions, competing supply, affordability of homeownership, broader economic conditions, and insurance costs in California. If lease-up occurs more slowly than expected, if rental rates are lower than projected, or if concessions are required to attract tenants, the project's operating results and cash flows could be adversely affected.

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.
