Company-specific risks also include asset impairment, difficulty selling remaining investments, and obligations tied to its relationship with Curbline Properties and shared services arrangements. - **Lease rollover and renewal risk** [high] — A meaningful portion of leased GLA expires in 2026, and renewals may occur at lower rents or not at all. - **E-commerce substitution** [high] — Online retail can reduce tenant space needs and weaken demand for physical stores. - **Asset impairment charges** [high] — Lower occupancy, weaker cash flows, or adverse market conditions can trigger write-downs. - **Disposition execution risk** [medium] — The company may have difficulty selling remaining investments at attractive prices. - **Curbline-related contractual and conflict risk** [medium] — Shared services and separation agreements can create ongoing obligations and potential conflicts. - Lease expirations can pressure occupancy and renewal rents - E-commerce can reduce demand for traditional brick-and-mortar space - Property impairments may arise if cash flows or values weaken - Asset sales may not occur at attractive prices or at all - Shared services and Curbline ties can create conflicts and costs ## Accounting The most important accounting judgments for SITE Centers are real estate impairment testing, fair value measurement, and the treatment of gains or losses on property dispositions.
