Grounding quotes
  • “We had an incredibly productive and active start to the year as investment opportunities have remained elevated, leasing demand has remained strong, and we've tapped new markets, increasing our liquidity and access to capital.”
  • “I could not be more optimistic about the opportunity ahead for Curbline as we exclusively focus on scaling the fragmented convenience real estate sector in an effort to deliver compelling relative and absolute growth for stakeholders.”
  • “First quarter results were ahead of budget, largely due to higher NOI, driven in part by higher-than-forecast occupancy and resulting recoveries, along with lower G&A expenses.”
  • “This elevated level of activity has continued putting us in a position to raise our 2026 investment target to $850 million from $750 million.”

Risks & pressure points

  • Management flagged a Q2 same-property NOI headwind from the timing of recoverable CapEx spending concentrated in the quarter
  • Management flagged a same-property NOI headwind from the timing of bad debt expense
  • Q1 results included a $1.8 million noncash G&A gross-up (offset by $1.8 million of noncash other income) tied to the shared services agreement

Key moments

Jump directly to management's words in the synchronized transcript.

“We are increasing OFFO guidance to a range between $1.20 and $1.23 per share, which at the midpoint represents 14% growth. We believe that this level of growth will be the highest certainly in the retail space and amongst the highest in the entire REIT sector.” Conor Fennerty, CFO
“including cash on hand at quarter end of $306 million, along with total unsettled equity proceeds of $371 million, Curbline has over $700 million of immediate liquidity available to fund the remaining investments included in guidance after taking into account retained cash flow.” Conor Fennerty, CFO
