Forward guidance

The Company is updating full year, and establishing third quarter 2024 guidance for diluted EPS and Core FFO per Share:

Tailwinds

  • Re-affirming Core FFO per Share guidance in the range of $7.06 - $7.22 for the year ending December 31, 2024.
  • Establishing Core FFO per Share guidance for the third quarter ending September 30, 2024 in the range of $2.46 - $2.56.
  • Increasing Same Property NOI growth for MH to a range of 6.8% – 7.4% for the full year.
  • Increasing Same Property NOI growth to a range of 8.6% – 10.4% for the full year in the UK.
  • General and administrative expenses, excluding non-recurring expenses – decreasing the midpoint by approximately $5.0 million, or 210 basis points, reflecting corporate cost rationalization.

Headwinds

  • Total Real Property NOI growth is 5.8% - 6.4%, 80 basis points lower at the midpoint of guidance for 2024, primarily reflecting the property dispositions and the resultant loss of income from those properties.
  • Reducing Same Property NOI growth to a range of (0.7%) – 0.9% for RV.
  • Reducing Same Property NOI to a range of 6.2% – 7.2% for Marinas.
  • Lowering full year UK home sales FFO contribution by $850,000 or approximately 1.5% at the midpoint to reflect updated expectations.
  • Interest expense guidance is $6.5 million lower at the midpoint primarily due to debt paydown with proceeds generated from the property dispositions.
