Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Share Of Rexford Industrial Realty Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We trim our 12-month target price by $4 to $41, applying a forward P/FFO multiple of 17.1x on our 2026 FFO estimate, a discount to its 19.2x three-year forward average. We leave our 2026 FFO/share estimate unchanged at $2.40 but lower 2027's by $0.07 to $2.47. Negative re-leasing spreads remain our base case for 2026, but we believe infill properties in Southern California have structural barriers preventing new supply from coming online. Leasing rose 70% Y/Y in Q1 and we expect re-leasing spreads at 6%-9% in 2027, supported by a lack of new supply and higher occupancy rates. REXR's current capital recycling strategy, aimed at selling sub-4% cap rate properties and either repurchasing shares or redeveloping properties, should lift total portfolio returns higher next year. We note demand in Southern California remains strongest for spaces under 50K sq ft, which are REXR's core focus, and believe increased advanced manufacturer demand in the San Fernando Valley and South Bay markets could accelerate this year.
