Management Comments

Stephen E. Budorick, COPT’s President & Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our Defense/IT investment strategy, which has concentrated our portfolio near priority U.S. defense installations, continues to produce solid results. Since 2022, the significant growth in defense spending has materialized into elevated tenant demand for our portfolio, resulting in a 96.8% leased rate in our Defense/IT Locations segment, which accounts for 90% of our core portfolio annualized rental revenue. This is the highest leased rate since we started reporting the segment in 2015. Our second quarter results were strong as FFO per share exceeded the midpoint of our guidance range by $0.02. Given our outperformance year to date, we are increasing the midpoint of our full year FFO per share guidance by $0.02 to $2.40 per share, which represents a 2% increase over 2022’s results. Same-property cash NOI increased 5.8% for 2Q23 over 2Q22, and 7.0% for the first half of 2023 over the first half of 2022, which led us to again increase our full year change in cash NOI guidance by 100 basis points. Our leasing activity is right on track as we are roughly halfway towards our full year vacancy leasing goal and 70% towards our development leasing goal. Our investment grade rated balance sheet is well positioned to navigate the challenging capital markets environment as we have no significant debt maturities until 2026, with 96% of our NOI unencumbered. We remain confident in our strategy and expect to continue to allocate capital to investments at our Defense/IT Locations that will support continued growth in FFO per share and shareholder value.”
