On February 4, 2021 Power REIT (“Power REIT” or the “Trust”), announced that on February 3, 2021, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust, it closed on the acquisition of a 37,000 square foot property located in Riverside County, CA (the “Property”) and received an assignment of a lease (the “Lease”) with Fiore Management LLC d.b.a. Canndescent (the “Tenant”).
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends Item 9.01 of the original Form 8-K filed on February 4, 2021 to present the audited historical financial statements and the unaudited pro forma financial information required to be filed by Item 9.01 (a) and (b), for the Trust’s acquisition of the Canndescent Property.
