Innovative Industrial Properties’ (NYSE: IIPR) stock plunged 13.85% on Friday.
The San Diego-based cannabis company was trading at $95.88 per share around noon. The price continued to hover around there on the heels of a report in which IIPR's Delaware-based subsidiary, IIP-CA 2 LP, claimed that tenant Kings Garden Inc. failed to pay base rent and property management fees for the month of July under each of the leases for a total of six properties owned by IIP-CA 2 LP.
According to a company filing, Kings Garden needs to pay a total of $2.2 million.
