Citi’s Miami Global Property CEO Conference 2026 summary2 Mar, 2026

Opening remarks and investment highlights

  • Net lease REIT with $16B equity market cap and $25B enterprise value, diversified across geographies and property types.

  • Record deal volume in 2025, with momentum carrying into 2026; investment activity underpins sustainable growth.

  • Over $900M in unsettled equity forwards, effectively pre-funding 2026 and likely 2027 investment volume.

  • Portfolio has strong rent growth profile, contributing about half of expected earnings growth and reducing reliance on acquisitions.

  • AFFO guidance viewed as conservative; stock trades at a discount to peers, presenting potential for multiple expansion.

Deal activity, guidance, and credit risk

  • Over $3B in investments over the past five quarters, with 2025 as a reset year after strategic simplification.

  • 2026 guidance includes $10M–$15M in potential credit loss (60–90 bps of rent), allowing for 4.2% AFFO growth at midpoint.

  • 2025 ended with $6M in lost rent (40 bps), below the current year’s conservative starting range.

  • Conservative deal volume assumption of $1.5B for 2026, compared to $2.1B in 2025, with potential for upward revision.

  • Upside potential exists from lower credit loss and higher acquisition activity as the year progresses.

Investment spreads, pricing, and competition

  • 2025 weighted average cap rate was 7.6%, with contractual rent bumps in the mid to high 2%.

  • Average yield factoring in bumps reached low to mid 9%, with funding costs around 6%.

  • Expectation for cap rates to compress by 10–30 bps in 2026, but improved cost of capital should widen spreads.

  • U.S. net lease market is highly competitive, especially in retail; industrial deals comprise about 75% of recent volume.

  • Private capital is entering the space, but competition has not significantly impacted deal flow or cap rates.

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.
