Exhibit 15.1
PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Tampa, FL, April 13, 2020 – Generation Income Properties (GIPR) Chief Executive Officer David Sobelman issued the following letter to shareholders:
Dear Shareholders:
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in societal challenges and atypical volatility in the capital markets. Like most people, we have shifted to a remote work environment but are keeping our lines of communication open to our investors, tenants, and real estate contacts to leverage our collective intelligence in these trying times. We continue to follow-up on real estate leads as we try and expand our portfolio.
As you may know from our recent SEC filings, our portfolio as of December 31, 2019 had the following positive characteristics:
• | Tenant quality - In the aggregate, approximately 78% of our portfolio’s annualized base rent is derived from tenants that have, or whose parent company has, a Standard & Poors credit rating of “BBB-” or better – an investment grade rating. Our three largest tenants generate 70% of our portfolio’s annualized rent and include the General Service Administration (United States Government), the PRA Group (NASDAQ: PRAA), and Pratt & Whitney (a $21B subsidiary of United Technologies (formerly NYSE: UTX)) who recently merged with Raytheon Technologies (NYSE: RTX). |
• | Assets are 100% leased with long-term lease durations. Our portfolio is 100% leased with a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 7.9 years. |
• | Leases provide for contractually obligated increases. Approximately 42% of portfolio leases include increases in base rent during their current term. Additionally, approximately 63% of our leases include base rent increases during lease extension periods. |
We will continue to monitor the credit worthiness of our portfolio and maintain communication with our tenants to ensure we become aware of any issues. Our focus on asset management and tenant relations continues to be of utmost importance to us just like any other market cycle.
On February 12, 2020, we were able to refinance two loans totaling $9.7 million that were due in 2020 with a $11.3 million promissory note that has a fixed interest rate of 4.17% for 10 years which should help us stabilize our risk profile in these uncertain times.
We wish you well. On behalf of Generation Income Properties, it is our sincere desire that you stay well during this difficult time. As stated earlier, our lines of communication are open. Please do not hesitate to reach out to a member of our team with questions or concerns.
David Sobelman
Chief Executive Officer
