INNOVATIVE INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES INC IIPR

We are an internally-managed REIT focused on the acquisition, ownership and management of specialized industrial and commercial properties in the United States. Our properties are primarily leased to experienced, state-licensed operators for their regulated cannabis facilities. We have acquired and expect to continue to acquire our cannabis properties through sale-leaseback transactions and third-party purchases. These properties are generally leased, and we expect to continue leasing them on a triple-net lease basis, pursuant to which the tenant is responsible for all aspects of and costs related to the property and its operation during the lease term, including structural repairs, maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance. Outside of the cannabis sector, our leases may include different lease structures that do not require tenants to assume all property-related expenses. In addition to our cannabis-related real estate portfolio, we also have financial investments in the life science industry and intend to actively pursue acquisitions of properties within that sector as a key component of our growth strategy. We may continue expanding our investment activities to include joint ventures, debt or mezzanine financing, preferred or joint venture equity interests, and interests in other real estate funds or REITs.
