The portfolio consists of approximately 766 properties, with 759 located in 44 U.S. states and seven in four Canadian provinces.

The outlook for the current fiscal year is positive, with the company planning to use proceeds from a public offering of $350.0 million 5.000% senior unsecured notes due in 2032 to realign its notional swap value with its floating rate exposure. The risk assessment for the company indicates a high dilution risk, with the diluted share count being moderately above the basic share count. The company has also mentioned dilution or offering risk in its source documents. The liquidity risk is low, but the company's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.0 suggests that it is not leveraging its capital effectively.
