The 7.3% dilution from this offering is material and the 4% discount to the prior close signals near-term selling pressure. Watch for the stock to trade down toward the $21 offering price. The use of proceeds to repay credit facility debt used for the Annapolis Mall acquisition is a balance sheet repair move, not growth capital. Monitor for further ATM issuance and any updates on the Path Forward Plan.
