Key Terms

at-the-market offering program, weighted average cash capitalization rate, net leasable interior square feet, fully diluted shares outstanding

4 terms

at-the-market offering program financial

"Through its at-the-market offering program, the Company issued 807,184 shares..."

An at-the-market offering program lets a company sell newly issued shares directly into the open market at current trading prices through a broker, rather than issuing a large block of stock all at once. It matters to investors because it provides the company a flexible way to raise cash over time, which can dilute existing shares gradually and affect earnings per share and stock price depending on how much and when shares are sold—think of it as a faucet the company can open or close to add supply to the market.

weighted average cash capitalization rate financial

"These acquisitions were completed at a weighted average cash capitalization rate of approximately 7.5%."

A weighted average cash capitalization rate is the single blended percentage used to convert a company’s expected future cash receipts into a current dollar value, where different cash streams are given different weights based on size, timing or risk. Think of it as the average interest rate you would use if you merged several loans into one — it determines how much future cash is worth today, so changes in that rate materially affect valuations and investor comparisons.

net leasable interior square feet technical

"These properties comprise approximately 642,000 net leasable interior square feet..."

Net leasable interior square feet is the floor area inside a building that can be rented to tenants, excluding common areas like hallways, lobbies, stairwells, mechanical rooms and structural elements. Investors care because this number represents the actual revenue-producing space—think of it as the usable rooms in a house you can rent out versus the shared corridors—so it directly affects potential rental income, occupancy metrics and property valuation.

fully diluted shares outstanding financial

"As of December 31, 2025, there were 34,104,349 fully diluted shares outstanding..."

Total number of shares that would exist if every outstanding option, warrant, convertible security and other instrument that can become stock were exercised or converted; it combines current shares with all potential shares. Investors use this figure to see the true size of the ownership pie and to judge per-share metrics like earnings or value per share, because potential extra shares can dilute each existing investor’s claim much like adding more slices reduces the size of each slice of a pie.
