The bolt-on acquisition is small relative to PSTL's $717M market cap (~3.9%) and priced at a reasonable implied cap rate given USPS credit. Monitor next earnings for FFO accretion and any further related-party transactions. The related-party structure and governance via special committee suggest limited controversy, but insider selling by the CEO via the transaction may be viewed cautiously.
