The company’s real estate assets have a total value of $27.12 per share with other assets totaling $2.64 per share. The fair value of debt was ($9.21) and other liabilities totaled ($0.29).
The board reviewed the valuations prepared by Duff & Phelps and determined that the value of the real estate assets was $850.1 million, which was within the valuation range of $796.4 million to $860.0 million provided by Duff & Phelps.
The REIT’s advisor noted that applying the low, midpoint and high range of discount rates determined by Duff & Phelps resulted in an estimated per share NAV range equal to $18.55 – $20.58 per share on a fully diluted basis. The midpoint in that range was $19.53.
