Presidio Property Trust, Inc. (SQFT)·Q2 2024 Earnings Summary

Executive Summary

  • Q2 2024 printed a GAAP net loss of $12.4M (−$1.00 EPS) on revenue of $4.59M; the loss was driven by a $10.0M mark‑to‑market hit on Conduit Pharmaceuticals securities, partially offset by $0.8M gains on model home sales .
  • Operations showed resilient leasing despite macro headwinds: 10 new leases and 78% renewal of expiring square footage in H1, with portfolio occupancy at 82.6% vs 80.9% in Q1 .
  • Non‑GAAP FFO and Core FFO deteriorated year over year (FFO to −$1.26M; Core FFO to −$0.44M) with higher G&A tied to proxy/settlement costs and legal fees related to Zuma Capital .
  • No explicit revenue/EPS guidance; management expects continued gains on model home sales into Q3, while Series D preferred dividends held steady at $0.19531 per month; Series A common paid no dividend in Q2 .
  • No Q2 2024 earnings call transcript was available across our document set or third‑party archives, limiting call‑based narrative; stock‑moving catalysts remain the sizable Conduit fair‑value loss and visibility on model home dispositions .

What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • Leasing momentum: 10 leases signed in H1 and 78% renewal of expiring space; “our overall leasing outlook is positive,” per CIO Gary Katz .
  • Active model home portfolio management: 15 model homes sold for ~$7.4M with ~$0.8M net gain; seven acquired for ~$3.5M, maintaining rental income streams .
  • Occupancy uptick: consolidated commercial/retail occupancy reached 82.6% at quarter‑end, up from 80.9% in Q1 .

What Went Wrong

  • Large non‑operating loss: ~$10.0M net loss on Conduit investments drove GAAP results sharply lower; FFO/Core FFO declined YoY .
  • Elevated G&A burden: G&A rose to $2.20M (48.0% of revenue), driven by annual meeting and settlement/fees linked to Zuma Capital .
  • Interest expense higher YoY: mortgage interest rose to $1.53M vs $1.34M in Q2 2023, pressuring cash flow despite gains on asset sales .

Management Commentary

  • “During the first and second quarters, we entered into 10 leases with new tenants totaling nearly 36,000 sf… renewed 78% of expiring square footage… Our overall leasing outlook is positive.” — Gary Katz, CIO .
  • “Despite challenges with affordability and higher interest rates, we have had a brisk quarter of sales activity… We continue to analyze acquisition opportunities…” — Steve Hightower, President, Model Homes Division .
  • Q1 setup: “With currently scheduled lease expirations during 2024 at a level nearly one‑half of that during 2023… good reason to anticipate… more stable rent roll…” — Gary Katz, CIO .
  • Conduit investment mechanics (lock‑up, private CDT warrants; fair‑value Level 3 remeasurement) and aggregate holdings detail were provided, highlighting mark‑to‑market exposure .

Q&A Highlights

  • No Q2 2024 earnings call transcript was available; therefore, no Q&A themes or clarifications can be cited [ListDocuments 2024-07 to 2024-09 earnings-call-transcript returned 0; https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/SQFT].

Estimates Context

  • Wall Street consensus (S&P Global) for Q2 2024 EPS and revenue was unavailable due to data access limitations during retrieval. As a result, we cannot present a vs‑estimates comparison and recommend treating reported results as absolute performance vs prior periods [GetEstimates error].

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Core operations stable: leasing retention at 78% and occupancy improved to 82.6%, supporting base rent durability despite rate headwinds .
  • Non‑operating volatility is the swing factor: ~$10.0M Conduit fair‑value loss dominated GAAP; investors should discount GAAP noise and track FFO/Core FFO trend, which still weakened YoY .
  • Model home portfolio rotation continues: gains on sales persisted in Q2 and are expected into Q3; watch acquisition pace and sales mix for cash generation .
  • Balance sheet: total assets fell to $150.5M from $163.5M in Q1 and $176.0M at YE, with mortgage notes at ~$101.1M; Dakota Center loan outcome is a near‑term risk item .
  • Dividend profile: Series D preferred remains consistent ($0.19531/month), while common dividends are suspended; income investors stay in preferred, equity holders should focus on FFO recovery .
  • Catalysts: resolution on Dakota Center debt path, continued occupancy gains, and realized gains on model home dispositions can improve sentiment; conversely, further Conduit marks could pressure reported GAAP .
