Q2 Revenue Declines 6.5%
Total revenue of $12.1M, down from $12.9M in Q2 2025, driven by rental income loss from three vacant properties. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $5.9M ($0.29/share), FFO $9.9M ($0.47/share), and AFFO $10.3M ($0.49/share).
-
Credit Facility Extended to 2029
The $90M revolving credit facility maturity was extended to May 2029, and the interest rate was reduced to Prime (from Prime+1.0%), lowering borrowing costs. Only $7.6M was outstanding as of June 30, 2026.
-
Cannabist Tenant Restructuring Risk
Tenant Cannabist (8.1% of annualized base rent) is in CCAA restructuring. All rent is current, but Vireo Growth's proposed acquisition of Cannabist assets in Illinois and Massachusetts introduces uncertainty for four leased properties.
-
Kentucky Dispensary Acquisition
Acquired a dispensary in Kentucky for $0.6M and committed $1.6M for improvements, leased to an existing tenant, adding to the portfolio's growth pipeline.
Analysis · NLCP · Real Estate & Construction
NewLake's Q2 results show continued revenue pressure from vacant properties, with a 6.5% year-over-year decline. The key tenant Cannabist is in CCAA restructuring, though rent is current. A proposed sale of Cannabist assets to Vireo Growth adds uncertainty. Positively, the company extended its credit facility maturity to 2029 at a lower rate and acquired a Kentucky dispensary, signaling capital deployment capacity. The 88% AFFO payout ratio on a $1.72 annualized dividend remains well-covered, but tenant risk and portfolio vacancies are the main overhangs.
