🟡 HOLD — Hold; the expanded credit facility and lower borrowing costs are positive, but the high-rate environment remains a drag on valuation.

Essential Properties Realty Trust (EPRT) is a REIT that acquires and manages commercial properties (retail, industrial, office) leased to tenants under long-term contracts, primarily in the United States. EPRT shows acceptable financial health (7.18) with 18.10% revenue growth, but its high leverage (Net Debt/EBITDA of 4.96) and long-duration nature make it vulnerable to the rise in 10-year yields, already reflected in its 4th percentile position in the 52-week range.
