Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Essex Property Trust reported third quarter 2024 net income of $1.84 per diluted share, up from $1.36 a year earlier, and Core FFO of $3.91 per diluted share, up 3.4%. The company raised its full-year 2024 Core FFO and net income guidance midpoints but lowered its Total FFO midpoint, so shareholders see higher core earnings and a mixed picture on the FFO guidance.

Key points

  • Q3 2024 net income per diluted share was $1.84 versus $1.36 in Q3 2023, largely due to gains on remeasurement of co-investments.
  • Core FFO per diluted share was $3.91 in Q3 2024, $0.04 above the midpoint of guidance and up 3.4% from $3.78.
  • Full-year 2024 Core FFO guidance midpoint rose $0.06 to $15.56; the Total FFO midpoint fell $0.13 to $15.92.
  • Same-property revenue grew 3.5% and same-property NOI grew 2.6% versus Q3 2023.
