Revenue & Sales Performance

Slow growth

Full-year guidance for 2026 raised, with acceleration expected in the back half of the year, particularly in Q3 and Q4 due to speculative lease-ups kicking in then (Page 15, Staci Tyler).
Second quarter FFO growth projected at 6% over Q2 2025, with a ramp-up through the second half of 2026 (Page 15).
Speculative development leasing starts no impact in Q2 but contributing significantly in Q3 and Q4, supporting growth (Page 15).
Positive leasing momentum and strong demand across diverse markets; occupancy remains high though expected to slightly decline over the year due to natural turnover (Pages 11, 8).

Capital Expenditure Plans

Capex planned

2026 development starts guidance increased to $265 million, up $15 million from prior guidance, driven by a 100,000 sq ft pre-leased building expansion.
Construction commenced on 4 projects totaling 586,000 sq ft during Q1; 27% pre-leased.
New development sites in targeted infill locations remain challenging due to sourcing, entitlements, and zoning delays.
Development pipeline includes 775,000 sq ft of opportunity leasing from 2025 transferred projects.
Development yields have increased steadily; mix includes redevelopment (e.g., Dominguez accounting for ~50 bps in yields).
Potential for additional development starts beyond current guidance, possibly up to $300 million subject to market conditions.
Exploring value-add acquisitions (buying leased or vacant last mile shallow bay buildings) as a shadow development pipeline to increase development exposure.
