Record Leasing Activity
Brixmor executed 1.7 million square feet of new and renewal leases at a blended cash spread of 24%, including over 900,000 square feet of new leases at an impressive 44% spread. This activity generated the highest quarterly annual base rent in the company's history.
Strong Financial Position and Growth Outlook
NAREIT FFO was $0.56 per share in the second quarter, driven by same-property NOI growth of 3.8% despite a 260 basis point drag from tenant disruption. The company has increased its FFO guidance to $2.22 to $2.25.
Strategic Acquisition of LaCenterra
Brixmor announced the acquisition of LaCenterra, a grocery-anchored lifestyle center in Houston, boasting over 5 million visits annually. The acquisition offers significant upside due to below-market rents and a diverse mix of high-quality tenants.
Strong Balance Sheet
Brixmor ended the quarter with $1.4 billion in available liquidity and no remaining debt maturities until June 2026, providing flexibility to execute on their business plan.
Resilient Consumer Demand and Retailer Growth
The company reported strong traffic and collection trends, with creditworthy tenants focused on growing store count. Brixmor is well-positioned to capitalize on this environment and deliver compelling growth in 2025 and beyond.
