Despite this, the top-line figure for Q1 2025 outpaced the consensus estimates by 4.8%. The revenue for Q1 2025 was $758.2 million, a 1.4% decrease year-over-year due to lower income from rentals.

Citi has lowered the stock price target from higher levels down to about $74, citing a reduction in 2025 and 2026 FFO estimates and ongoing challenges including slower leasing activity and higher interest expenses. JMP analysts, on the other hand, maintain a "Market Outperform" rating with a price target of $130, emphasizing better-than-expected core FFO results and the company’s strategic focus on mega campuses. JPMorgan has downgraded to a "Neutral" rating with a price target lowered to $95, citing concerns regarding life science real estate fundamentals and venture capital gains.
The dividend remains attractive at $1.32 per share for Q2 2025, offering about a 7.5% yield on the current stock price. However, the company has paused dividend growth, which could indicate a conservative outlook on earnings.
