ARE Stock Recent News

Share buyback activity by US equity real estate investment trusts more than doubled in the first quarter, according to an analysis by S&P Global Market Intelligence. The US REIT sector bought back around $993.2 million in common stock in the period, more than twice as much as the $456.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and up 15.5% year over year. More than a dozen REITs announced new share repurchase programs during the first quarter.

ARE trades at decade-low valuations, offering a 7.5%+ yield and significant discounts to book value and equity versus peers. Operational strength is driven by high-quality tenants, resilient lease structures, and a robust development pipeline expected to boost NOI by $350M by 2028. Dividend is well-covered by FFO, with a 14-year growth streak and strong FFO coverage ratio, making the yield attractive and sustainable.

Alexandria Real Estate offers an unusually high 7.5% yield, backed by 391 properties and long-term leases with leading healthcare tenants. Valuation metrics are at multi-decade lows, nearing an incredible bargain position for new investment. It could prove one of the best buy setups since public trading began in 1997. The REIT's diversified tenant base, strong credit-rating profile, and low-cost debt structure provide downside protection against real estate sector headwinds.

ARE offers a contrarian Buy opportunity, trading at a deep discount with a well-covered 7.5% dividend yield and resilient FFO per share. While sector demand is soft, ARE's fundamentals are solid: diversified tenant base, limited 2025 lease expirations and strong pre-leasing on new developments. Elevated leverage and a large development pipeline add risk, but long-dated debt maturities and strong fixed charge coverage provide financial flexibility.

Office buildings are experiencing accelerating bifurcation; quality assets in strong markets are outperforming as obsolete buildings face decline or conversion. We capitalized on deeply discounted valuations in 2023-24, notably with HIW, which delivered a +43% total return in 2024. Current leasing momentum, generationally low supply, and return-to-office trends support positive earnings growth for high-quality office REITs.

More office space is set to be removed than added this year, shrinking the overall office footprint. Office vacancies soared to a record high and still hover right around there at 19%.
