EXPLANATORY NOTE

Exhibit 99.1 in the original 8-K filed on May 9, 2016 contains typographical errors. This amended Current Report on Form 8-K corrects those errors.

 

ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) prepared an investor presentation (the “Investor Presentation”) that the Company plans to host on its website beginning on May 9, 2016. The Investor Presentation is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

On May 9, 2016 the Investor Presentation will be available through the investor relations page of the Company’s website at http://ir.stockpr.com/whlr/overview.

The Company considers portions of this Current Report on Form 8-K to contain “forward-looking” statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When the Company uses words such as “may,” “will,” “intend,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate” or similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters, it is making forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations discussed in the forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions it can give no assurance that expected results will be achieved, and actual results may differ materially from expectations. Specifically, the Company’s statements regarding: (i) the anticipated implementation of the Company’s growth, acquisition and disposition strategy; (ii) the future generation of value to the Company from the acquisition of service orientated retail properties in secondary and tertiary markets; (iii) the development and return on undeveloped properties; and (iv) anticipated dividend coverage are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. For these reasons, among others, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements in this press release. For additional factors that could cause the operations of the Company to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available for review at www.sec.gov. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof.
