DIVIDENDS

 

The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with its short taxable year beginning on November 26, 2019 and ending on December 31, 2019 upon the filing of our tax return for such taxable year. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must annually distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gains, and must distribute 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) to eliminate corporate federal income taxes payable by the REIT. Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues and expenses (such as depreciation and other items), in certain circumstances, the Company may generate operating cash flow in excess of its dividends, or alternatively, may need to make dividend payments in excess of operating cash flows. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company declared and paid cash dividends on its common stock and OP Units of $0.20 and $0.40 per share, respectively.
