Forward guidance

JBG SMITH anticipates challenges due to macroeconomic headwinds and Amazon vacates but expects growth from multifamily assets and new developments. The company is focused on capital allocation strategies, including share repurchases and asset recycling, to maximize long-term value.

Tailwinds

  • Leasing of 1900 Crystal Drive is exceeding previous deliveries
  • The DC area apartment market is showing resilience and steady growth
  • The DC market held occupancy and grew rents
  • There is consistent demand for National Landing office space from defense and technology industries
  • JBG SMITH continues to find opportunities to recycle out of low-return office and land assets

Headwinds

  • Long-expected Amazon vacates are anticipated to lower the retention rate in 2024
  • A dwindling market for office buildings
  • Institutional capital remains on the sidelines
  • Debt for office assets is almost non-existent
  • Equity capital remains skittish and sidelined
