Management maintained its 2026 guidance stance from the prior quarter, reaffirming the $165 million disposition target and continued share repurchases. The capex outlook shifted from stable to increasing, reflecting planned investments in energy-conservation projects and bulk Internet infrastructure. Guidance sentiment was maintained in both quarters.

What to watch on the call

Carried forward from the last transcript

Risks management flagged

  • Uncertainty in the broader job market and sustainability of AI-driven employment gains.
  • Rent-control legislation proposals in Massachusetts and a rent-freeze measure in Washington D.C.
  • Slower leasing momentum in Boston, Seattle, and Los Angeles.
  • Higher utility costs from storms and energy price volatility.
  • Difficulty selling large, capex-intensive older assets.

Questions analysts left open

  • Seasonality of rent growth and whether pricing trends will stay on an upward trajectory.
  • Future concession levels in expansion markets (D.C., Seattle, Atlanta).
  • Disposition pipeline and potential impact of widening cap rates on older assets.
  • Impact of proposed rent-control regulations on profitability.
  • Balance between share buybacks versus capital-intensive acquisitions or developments.
