Warehouse Demand Is Heating Up. These 4 REITs Pay Investors to Own the Space
24/7 Wall St compares EastGroup Properties, Prologis, First Industrial Realty Trust and Rexford Industrial Realty as dividend-paying ways to hold industrial property exposure. The article discusses warehouse demand alongside each company's operating results and distribution profile, rather than treating the four portfolios as interchangeable.
For EastGroup, it highlights third-quarter funds from operations of $2.45 per diluted share, up 7.9% from a year earlier, and 96.5% occupancy at September 30. Those operating figures support the article's comparison, but funds from operations is a non-GAAP measure, not net income. The article's preferences remain an investment opinion, with occupancy, borrowing costs and distribution coverage relevant to the comparison.
