Strategic positioning and portfolio transformation

  • Focus on necessity-based retail in high-barrier, first-ring suburban markets, with 86% of annual base rent from grocery-anchored centers and 91% of the portfolio in strong demographic corridors.

  • Transformation involved selling higher cap rate, middle-market assets and reinvesting in grocery-anchored centers, resulting in sector-leading FFO growth and high unlevered IRR.

  • Asset management platform drives growth by incorporating grocery components into vacated spaces, with deals involving Sprouts, Trader Joe's, Aldi, Lidl, Kroger, BJ's, and Walmart.

  • Capital recycling strategy includes selling flat ground leases (9% of ABR) and redeploying proceeds into higher-growth shopping centers and creative acquisitions.

  • Multifamily densification and entitlement sales add value, with joint ventures and preferred equity structures providing current returns and future optionality.

Leasing, occupancy, and tenant demand

  • Leasing velocity and tenant demand remain strong, with retailers accelerating deals to secure well-located, high-performing centers.

  • Over 90% of vacated boxes from bankrupt tenants have been backfilled at double-digit rent spreads, expanding the sign-but-not-open pipeline to $66 million, with 88% commencing by end of next year.

  • Small shop occupancy at a record 92.2%, with further upside expected as anchor vacancies are filled and demand for services, health, and beauty tenants grows.

  • New leasing spreads exceed 30%, with renewal spreads in high single digits, resulting in the highest blended spreads in seven years.

  • Watchlist of at-risk tenants is at its smallest ever, with no major bankruptcies anticipated and strong sector health.

Technology and operational efficiency

  • Significant investment in technology, including Salesforce and generative AI, enhances data insights, leasing lead generation, and operational efficiency.

  • AI tools are used in marketing, legal, accounting, and capital allocation, compressing deal timelines and improving G&A efficiency.

  • No incremental cost for AI initiatives currently, but spending is expected to increase next year as adoption deepens across departments.

  • Operational efficiencies have kept G&A flat over three years despite acquisitions and portfolio growth.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

It started as a small real estate enterprise focusing on developing neighborhood shopping centers, typically anchored by a well-known supermarket. The company capitalized on suburban expansion across the U.S. and the subsequent growing demand for conveniently located retail spaces. While the retail industry has had to adapt to the rise of E-commerce, Kimco responded by adapting its strategy, focusing on high-quality shopping centers in key markets and divesting from non-core properties.
