Did FRT Beat Earnings? Q1 2025 Results
Federal Realty Investment Trust posted a steady first-quarter 2025 beat, reporting earnings per diluted share of $0.72 against the $0.71 consensus estimate, while revenue climbed 6.1% year-over-year to $309.15 million, lifted primarily by stronger rental income as commercial minimum rents grew to $203.12 million from $192.94 million a year ago. The occupancy story was equally encouraging, with comparable portfolio occupancy rising 180 basis points year-over-year to 93.6% and small shop leased rates reaching 93.5%, up 210 basis points, reflecting durable tenant demand at the company's affluent-market properties. Federal Realty also closed its $123.50 million acquisition of the 675,000-square-foot Del Monte Shopping Center in Monterey, California, adding anchor tenants including Whole Foods, Macy's, and Apple to its portfolio. Analysts currently hold a moderate buy consensus on the shares, with average price targets implying meaningful upside from current levels. Looking ahead, management nudged its 2025 FFO per diluted share guidance to $7.11 to $7.23, representing approximately 6% growth at the midpoint, while maintaining GAAP EPS guidance of $3.00 to $3.12.
