Bluerock Residential Growth REIT Beats FFO Estimates
November 30, 2017 | James Sprow | Blue Vault
According to an article from S&P Global, publicly traded U.S. equity REITs beat S&P Capital IQ per-share earnings estimates by a median of 0.76% in Q3 2017.
“The largest beat of the quarter came from multifamily REIT Bluerock Residential Growth REIT Inc. Bluerock’s funds from operations per share of negative five cents constituted a 45.9% beat of its S&P Capital IQ FFO estimate of negative nine cents per share. Bluerock attributed much of its total revenue growth to the past year’s significant investment activity and pointed to this year’s sale of four properties as an offsetting factor.”
Data center and self-storage REITs included in the analysis beat their estimates, while the diversified sector was the only one to have the majority of its companies miss their projected earnings targets.
