JBG SMITH posts Q1 net loss of $32.3 million; Core FFO falls to $26.9 million
JBG SMITH reported a first-quarter 2024 net loss of $32.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared with net income of $21.2 million a year earlier, and Core FFO fell to $26.9 million from $37.2 million. Management expects downward pressure on earnings from tenant vacates at least through the end of 2025, which matters to shareholders because it signals weaker earnings ahead even as the company sells assets and buys back shares.
