Question · Q4 2025
Omotayo Tejumade Okusanya asked for clarification on the drivers of NNN REIT's quarter-over-quarter occupancy gain, specifically whether it was primarily due to vacant asset sales or strong leasing activity, and its implications for 2026. He also inquired about NNN REIT's normalized AFFO per share growth and steady-state earnings growth, considering the 2026 guidance and 2025 performance.
Answer
CEO Stephen A. Horn Jr. clarified that most of the occupancy upside was driven by vacant asset sales, with some re-leasing activity. He expects vacancies to continue decreasing in 2026 through sales and re-leasing, which is reflected in lower net real estate expenses. Regarding growth, Mr. Horn reiterated NNN REIT's long-term mantra of achieving mid-single-digit consistent FFO growth, acknowledging that annual performance can vary based on macroeconomic conditions and portfolio composition.
