EPR Properties (formerly Entertainment Properties Trust) invests in places to play and learn. The self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) owns around 140 movie megaplex theaters and theater-anchored entertainment retail centers around the US and Canada. The REIT buys properties from theater operators and leases them back to the original owners. Many of its theaters are leased to AMC Entertainment. EPR also owns ski resorts (for clients including Camelback Mountain Resorts), golf resorts (for operator TopGolf), waterparks (including Schlitterbahn parks), public charter schools, early education centers, and private schools.
