Alexandria Real Estate price target lowered to $60 from $67 at BMO Capital

BMO Capital analyst John Kim lowered the firm’s price target on Alexandria Real Estate (ARE) to $60 from $67 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The REIT’s investor day was worse-than-expected with a steep 45% dividend cut, FY26 earnings guidance reduced below consensus, and lower-quality earnings with negative 8% same-store net operating income and FY26 capitalized interest guidance of $250M vs. expected $139M, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The market reacted to leverage concerns, though progress on $3.9B of planned dispositions would address this, the firm added.
