Ki Bin Kim’s rating is based on a combination of factors that reflect both the strengths and challenges faced by Broadstone Net Lease. The company’s results were largely in line with expectations, and it has shown steady growth in its development pipeline, now valued at $507 million. This includes a significant build-to-suit project with Prologis and Fiat Chrysler, which highlights the company’s strategic focus on higher-yield projects rather than low-margin acquisitions.
Despite the positive developments, the company is navigating a challenging environment with a non-optimal cost of equity capital. However, the management team has been effective in maintaining low leverage and focusing on methodical growth. The current valuation of 11x P/AFFO suggests that while the company is performing well, the market conditions and cost pressures justify a Hold rating, as the potential for significant upside may be limited in the near term.
In another report released on April 16, Morgan Stanley also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $18.00 price target.
