Essex Property Trust, Inc. is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that focuses on acquiring, developing, redeveloping, and managing multifamily residential properties in West Coast markets.
In its second quarter of 2025, Essex Property Trust reported a significant increase in net income per diluted share, primarily due to a gain on the sale of real estate, and raised its full-year guidance for 2025.
Key highlights from the quarter include a 137.2% increase in net income per diluted share compared to the previous year, driven by real estate sales. Core Funds from Operations (FFO) per diluted share grew by 2.3%, exceeding expectations due to higher same-property revenue growth and favorable property taxes in Washington. The company also reported a 3.2% growth in same-property revenue and a 3.3% increase in net operating income. Additionally, Essex acquired two apartment communities in Northern California and disposed of one in Southern California.
Looking ahead, Essex has raised its full-year 2025 guidance, expecting higher net income and Core FFO per diluted share. The company anticipates continued growth in same-property revenues and net operating income, supported by strategic acquisitions and favorable market conditions.
Essex Property Trust’s management remains optimistic about the company’s future performance, with a focus on strategic investments and maintaining strong financial health to support growth and shareholder returns.
