VICI Properties substantially streamlined its risk disclosures by removing nine risks, primarily focused on tenant lease obligations, lease renewal uncertainties, climate-related impacts, and stockholder governance limitations. The company added one new risk centered on ground and use lease arrangements while modifying 16 existing risks, with notable revisions to tax-related disclosures including REIT qualification requirements and forward sale agreement treatment. This represents a net reduction in disclosed risk factors and suggests a strategic shift toward emphasizing tax compliance and capital markets risks over operational and tenant-related vulnerabilities.

🟢 New in Current Filing We are exposed to risks related to our properties that are subject to ground and use lease arrangements which could adversely affect our results of operations. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing Our tenants are required to pay a significant portion of their cash flow from operations to us pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, our respective Lease Agreements and loan and other agreements with them. These lease payments, as well as interest payments on their outstanding indebtedness, could adversely affect our tenants’ business and financial condition, as well as their ability to satisfy their contractual payment obligations to us. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing Our tenants may choose not to renew the Lease Agreements. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing Extreme weather conditions such as flooding, water stress and heat stress caused by climate change may adversely affect our business. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing Certain properties are subject to restrictions pursuant to reciprocal easement agreements, operating agreements or similar agreements. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing Our board of directors may change our major corporate policies without stockholder approval and those changes may materially and adversely affect us. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing We may in the future choose to pay dividends in the form of our own common stock, in which case stockholders may be required to pay income taxes in excess of the cash dividends they receive. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing We may be subject to built-in gains tax on the disposition of certain of our properties. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing If we are required to make a purging distribution, we may pay such purging distribution in a combination of common stock and cash. 🔒
🔴 No Match in Current Filing Our rights and the rights of our stockholders to take action against our directors and officers are limited. 🔒
🟡 Modified Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may face other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow. 🔒
🟡 Modified In the event that we recognize a significant gain from cash settlement of a forward sale agreement, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the cash that we receive in such instance is unclear and could impact our ability to meet the REIT qualification requirements. 🔒
🟡 Modified Disruption in the equity capital and credit markets may adversely affect our ability to access external funding for our growth and ongoing debt service requirements. 🔒
🟡 Modified The market price and trading volume of shares of our common stock may be volatile. 🔒
🟡 Modified Adverse changes in our credit ratings may affect our borrowing terms and capacity. 🔒
🟡 Modified We may not be able to purchase properties pursuant to our rights under certain agreements, including put-call, call right, right of first refusal agreements and right of first offer agreements, including if we are unable to obtain additional financing. 🔒
🟡 Modified We have a substantial amount of indebtedness, and expect to incur additional indebtedness in the future. Our indebtedness exposes us to the risk of default under our debt obligations, increases the risks associated with a downturn in our business or in the businesses of our tenants, and requires us to use a significant portion of our cash to service our debt obligations. 🔒
🟡 Modified Interest rates have increased, and may continue to do so, increasing our overall interest rate expense, which could adversely affect our stock price. 🔒
🟡 Modified Our ability to sell, dispose of and use our properties may be limited by the contractual terms of our lease agreements, tax protection agreements or other agreements with our tenants, or otherwise impacted by matters relating to our real estate ownership. 🔒
🟡 Modified Our properties and the properties securing our loans are subject to risks from climate change, natural disasters, other adverse or extreme weather conditions, casualty and condemnation risks, and terrorist attacks or other acts of violence, the occurrence of which may adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. 🔒
🟡 Modified Because a concentrated portion of our revenues are generated from the Las Vegas Strip, we are subject to greater risks than a company that is more geographically diversified. 🔒
🟡 Modified Our pursuit of acquisitions of, and investments in, experiential assets and other strategic opportunities are in a highly competitive industry and may be unsuccessful or fail to meet our expectations, and we may not identify all potential costs and liabilities in connection with such acquisitions or investments. 🔒
🟡 Modified A breach or default of covenants in our debt agreements could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects. 🔒
🟡 Modified We are and expect to continue to be significantly dependent on our tenants for substantially all of our revenues and, because our tenants are required to pay a significant portion of their cash flow from operations to us pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, our respective lease agreements and other agreements with them, an event that has a material adverse effect on any of our significant tenants could have a material adverse effect on us. 🔒
🟡 Modified We are subject to additional risks due to our international investments and acquisitions, including properties that we own, or may acquire in the future, outside the United States. 🔒
🟡 Modified Our long-term, triple-net leases include rent escalations over specified periods that will generally continue to apply regardless of the amount of cash flows generated by the properties subject to such lease agreements, and such lease agreements may not result in fair market lease rates over time, which could negatively impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and reduce the amount of funds available to make distributions to stockholders. 🔒
