Forward guidance

The company is affirming its previous guidance for the year ending December 31, 2024.

Tailwinds

  • Executed leasing in the range of 1.5 - 2 million square feet.
  • Year-end leased percentage for the Company's in-service portfolio anticipated to be approximately 87-88%, before the impacts of any acquisition or disposition activity.
  • Same Store NOI flat to 2% increase on both a cash and accrual basis.
  • Interest expense of approximately $119-121 million.
  • General and administrative expense will remain relatively flat at approximately $29-30 million.

Headwinds

  • Net loss between $(47) and $(41) million.
  • Downtime between certain lease expirations and new lease commencements during 2024.
  • Full year of higher interest rates as a result of refinancing activity completed by the Company during the latter half of 2023 and early 2024.
  • No speculative acquisitions, dispositions, or refinancing are included in the above guidance.
  • Actual results could differ materially from these estimates and individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to the timing of any future dispositions, significant lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, repairs and maintenance expenses, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expense, one-time revenue or expense events, and other factors.
