- Total revenue of $92.4M, up 9.7% YoY from $84.2M, driven by rental income growth from acquisitions and development

Risk Factors
- U.S. government lease concentration (86% of annualized lease income) exposes to federal budget risk or shutdowns
- Net debt to EBITDA at 7.3x is elevated; rising interest rates could pressure refinancing costs on $230M maturing in 2027
- CAD declined to $25.8M from $29.3M YoY due to higher maintenance capex, potentially pressuring dividend coverage
