Curious how a REIT reporting accounting losses still lands at this kind of fair value range? The narrative leans heavily on net asset value, Funds From Operations trends, and how future cash generation could look if occupancy and development projects normalize. The key assumptions sit in the tension between current sector weakness and what those core assets might earn over time.

However, you still need to watch for further occupancy pressure or weaker asset sale proceeds, which could push net asset value and cash flow assumptions below this narrative range.
