Shares of Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (IIPR) plunged over 6% in pre-market trading on Wednesday, following the company's release of its third-quarter earnings report for the period ended September 30, 2024. The real estate investment trust (REIT) specializing in the regulated cannabis industry missed analysts' expectations on both earnings and revenue.
According to the earnings report, IIPR reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.37 for the third quarter, lower than the consensus estimate of $1.45 per share. The company's revenue for the quarter came in at $76.53 million, a 1.7% decrease from the same period last year and below analysts' expectations of $77.38 million.
The disappointing financial results could be attributed to various factors, including challenges in the cannabis industry or slower-than-anticipated growth in IIPR's portfolio of properties. Investors seem to have reacted negatively to the earnings miss, driving the stock down in pre-market trading.
