Armada Hoffler Properties just hiked its quarterly cash dividend by 5.1%, resulting in an 8.2% forward dividend yield. This is 151% covered by normalized FFO with just 2% of AHH's office portfolio leases expiring in 2024. The 96.1% weighted portfolio occupancy at the end of the fourth quarter is attractive with AHH now trading for 8x the midpoint of its guided normalized FFO range for 2024.
Armada Hoffler Properties is a mispriced REIT that presents an opportunity for income growth. AHH's financials for 2023 were solid, with steady revenue growth and a well-covered dividend with a conservative FFO payout of 62.5% . The company has a solid balance sheet, although its leverage level is higher than ideal, and it has plans to reduce it in the coming quarters.
