Innovative Industrial Properties 2 FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation and our associated comments include "forward - looking statements" (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are subject to risks and uncertain tie s. In particular, statements pertaining to our capital resources, portfolio performance and results of operations contain forward - looking statements. Likewise, our statements regarding anticipated growth in our funds from operations and anticipated market and regulatory conditions, our strategic direction, our dividend rate and policy, demographics, results of operations, plans and objectives are forward - looking statements. Forward - looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties, and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward - looking statements depend on a ssumptions, data or methods which may be incorrect or imprecise, and we may not be able to realize them. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). You can identify forward - looking statements by the use of forward - looking terminology such as "believes", "expects", "may", "will", "should", "seeks", "approximately", "int ends", "plans", "estimates" or "anticipates" or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. You can also identify forward - looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or inten tions. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward - looking statements: rates of default on l eases for our assets; concentration of our portfolio of assets and limited number of tenants; the estimated growth in and evolving market dynamics of the regulated cannabis market; the demand for regu lat ed cannabis facilities; inflation dynamics; our ability to improve our internal control over financial reporting, including our inability to remediate an identified material weakness, and the cost s a nd the time associated with such efforts; the impact of pandemics on us, our business, our tenants, or the economy generally; war and other hostilities, including the conflict in Ukraine; our business a nd investment strategy; our projected operating results; actions and initiatives of the U.S. or state governments and changes to government policies and the execution and impact of these actions, initiatives a nd policies, including the fact that cannabis remains illegal under federal law; availability of suitable investment opportunities in the regulated cannabis industry; our understanding of our competiti on and our potential tenants' alternative financing sources; the expected medical - use or adult - use cannabis legalization in certain states; shifts in public opinion regarding regulated cannabis; the pot ential impact on us from litigation matters, including rising liability and insurance costs; the additional risks that may be associated with certain of our tenants cultivating, processing and/or dispe nsi ng adult - use cannabis in our facilities; the state of the U.S. economy generally or in specific geographic areas; economic trends and economic recoveries; our ability to access equity or debt capi tal ; financing rates for our target assets; our level of indebtedness, which could reduce funds available for other business purposes and reduce our operational flexibility; covenants in our debt instru men ts, which may limit our flexibility and adversely affect our financial condition; our ability to maintain our investment grade credit rating; changes in the values of our assets; our expected port fol io of assets; our expected investments; interest rate mismatches between our assets and our borrowings used to fund such investments; changes in interest rates and the market value of our assets; th e d egree to which any interest rate or other hedging strategies may or may not protect us from interest rate volatility; the impact of and changes in governmental regulations, tax law and rates, accou nti ng guidance and similar matters; our ability to maintain our qualification as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes; our ability to maintain our exemption from registration un der the Investment Company Act of 1940; availability of qualified personnel; and market trends in our industry, interest rates, real estate values, the securities markets or the general economy. The risks included here are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performa nce . In addition, we discussed a number of material risks in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10 - K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q. Those risks continue to be relevant to our performance and financial condition. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from th ose contained in any forward - looking statements. Any forward - looking statement made by us speaks only of the date on which we make it. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any fo rward - looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Stockholders and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on suc h forward - looking statements when evaluating the information presented in our filings and reports. Market and industry data are included in this presentation. We have obtained substantially all of this information from inter nal studies, public filings, other independent published industry sources and market studies prepared by third parties. We believe these internal studies, public filings, other independent published indu str y sources and market studies prepared by third parties are reliable. However, this information may prove to be inaccurate. No representation or warranty is made as to the accuracy of such inform ati on. All amounts shown in this presentation are unaudited.
