Innovative Industrial Properties Remains A Compelling Dividend Buy - Reclassification Is Coming

Summary

• IIPR remains a compelling Buy for growth/ dividend oriented investors, thanks to its inherent undervaluation and rich forward yields.
• The upcoming cannabis federal reclassification will also trigger new growth opportunities for MSOs and REITs alike, further aided by the SAFER Banking Act.
• This is especially since IIPR calls the three largest US Multi-State Operators by Market Cap as its core tenants, namely Curaleaf, Trulieve, and Green Thumb.
• In the mean time, the management continues to deliver profitable operations along with healthier balance sheet and sustained investment growths, with minimal share dilution.
• Combined with the growing bullish support observed in IIPR's stock prices and valuations, we continue to reiterate our Buy rating here.
