Did BDN Beat Earnings? Q2 2026 Results
Brandywine Realty Trust delivered a mixed second quarter for fiscal 2026, posting revenue of $128.92 million, up 6.9% year over year and ahead of the $123.15 million consensus, while falling just short on the bottom line with a loss of $0.18 per diluted share against the $0.17 estimate, a 5.88% miss. The narrower net loss of $31.66 million compared favorably to the $88.99 million loss a year ago, which had been weighed down by $63.37 million in non-cash impairment charges on Austin properties, but rising interest expense, climbing to $41.93 million from $32.34 million, pressured FFO to $0.13 per diluted share. Portfolio rationalization remained the dominant operational theme, with total closed asset sales reaching $208 million and the full-year disposition target raised to $305 million, proceeds earmarked largely for debt reduction. Despite the stock dipping on the results, management narrowed full-year 2026 FFO guidance to $0.53 to $0.57 per diluted share and improved its loss per share outlook to $(0.45) to $(0.41), citing projected gains on real estate sales.
