Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ:LINE) is a specialty real estate investment trust that operates in the warehousing industry. It primarily works with the food and beverage industry through a commanding position in the temperature controlled warehouse sector. Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ:LINE) benefits from a dominant position in the market as it has a presence in 19 countries and a 33% market share in North America. The market share allows the firm to benefit from economies of scale through lower costs, and it also allows it to grow through non operational activities such as mergers and acquisitions. This is key since Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ:LINE)’s large exposure to the food and beverage industry means that while the business is somewhat hedged against economic downturns, it can only perform on all cylinders if the economy is performing well. This is also reflected in the share price, as Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ:LINE)’s stock is up by a mere 3% over the past twelve months. However, the firm is one of the most prolific acquirers in its industry having completed $11.7 billion in acquisitions to date.
