Analysis · MDRR · Real Estate & Construction
Medalist Diversified is expanding its portfolio with two single-tenant net-leased properties in Texas, both occupied by Caliber Collision. The combined purchase price of $11.1 million represents a significant capital deployment for a company with a market cap around $23 million. To fund the acquisitions, the company intends to use Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs), selling beneficial interests to accredited investors—a strategy that could provide non-dilutive capital but adds execution risk. This follows a series of aggressive moves including a new credit facility, a prior property acquisition, and a recent financial turnaround, signaling an active growth phase.
