As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company identified indicators of impairment at certain of its properties. Such indicators included a low occupancy rate, difficulty in leasing space and related cost of re-leasing, significant exposure to financially troubled tenants or reduced anticipated holding periods. The following table summarizes the results of these analyses as of September 30, 2020 and 2019:

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company and its tenants will depend, in part, on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. If the effects of COVID-19 cause economic and market conditions to continue to deteriorate or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets change, subsequent tests for impairment could result in impairment charges in the future. As of September 30, 2020, the Company does not consider the impacts of COVID-19, including tenant requests for lease concessions, to be impairment indicators. However, indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, changes in the Company’s view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry as
a result of COVID-19, or changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategies could change in future periods. The Company will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods and can provide no assurance that material impairment charges with respect to its investment properties will not occur in future periods.
