Briefing

Forward guidance

The company tightened the top end of its full-year guidance range due to challenges in leasing up certain properties and a tenant issue. The company anticipates that the space in St. Louis would have a positive leasing outcome.

Tailwinds

  • Development program getting close to 100% leased, with benefits from full stabilization expected in 2025.
  • Strong tenant demand and interest in renewing 2025 leases early due to anticipated interest rate decreases and rent increases.
  • Potential for additional tax wins in the Chicago portfolio, with assessments valid for two more years.
  • Robust pipeline of investment opportunities, ranging from small portfolios to one-off deals.
  • Onshoring movement driving demand for industrial space, particularly in the Golden Triangle region.

Headwinds

  • Challenges in leasing up certain properties, leading to a tightening of the top end of the full-year guidance range.
  • One tenant issue muted growth in the quarter.
  • Anticipated dip in same-store occupancy in Q3 to around 96.5% before returning to 98% by year-end.
  • Uncertainty regarding the timing of leasing and rent commencement for the St. Louis property.
  • Potential variability in expenses due to future tax appeals and credit losses.
