Duke Realty: We are raising our '09 and '10 estimates while our PO increases from $9 to $10. Maintain Neutral rating.
Kimco: Maintaining Buy rating due to the KIMs improved balance sheet strength as a result of its add-on offering. While retail fundamentals should remain weak for 09, KIMs should be one of the survivors.
Boston Properties: BXP's 1Q results solid; increasing FFO. BXP reported normalized 1Q09 FFOPS of $1.30/share when you exclude the $0.19 one-time, non-cash impairment charge related to the suspension of construction at 250 West 55th Street.
ProLogis Trust: Significant progress toward deleveraging. PLD has taken meaningful steps to improve its balance sheet although it comes with a near-term cost of earnings dilution. We are trimming our '09 and '10 estimates while our PO falls to $9.50.
Avalon Bay: Despite stronger than expected Q1 results we are lowering our rating from Buy to Neutral due to the recent stock price gains coupled with weakening fundamentals. Our new PO is $55 (up from $49).
Equity Residential: EQR reported 1Q09 FFO of $0.57 which was a few pennies above our forecast. We are raising our '09 and '10 FFO estimates by a nickel while our PO increases from $18.00 to $18.50.
Corporate Office Properties Trust: OFC reported $0.67, $0.08 ahead of our estimate. We maintain our 09 estimate of $2.41 while our NAV stays flat at $21 and our PO remains at $22, in line with our forward NAV estimate
Weingarten Realty: Maintaining 09 Est., despite 1Q surprise: We are maintaining our price objective of $13 for WRI. This assumes a 5% discount to its forward NAV. Maintain Underperform based on PO and WRI recent outperformance of REIT sector.
AMB Property Corp: Well positioned to weather the storm: AMB reported better than expected Q1 results due to higher than expected gains on development sales. We are maintaining our Neutral rating but raising our PO from $16 to $19 per share.
SL Green: SLG's results beat on one-time items. SLG reported 1Q09 FFO of $1.48. We are increasing our 09 FFOPS estimate by $0.17 to $5.67, while our PO increased $2 to $16.50, in line with our forward NAV estimate.
Now that all REITs are solidly recapitalized and chasing the 3 still non-bankrupt retail tenants with 100%-off rent offers, maybe it is time for the custodians to allow investors to short again. One of these days SPY and IWR may finally not be Hard To Borrow - who knows?
