Recent Company History

Over the past several months, Veris Residential reported multiple balance sheet and operational improvements. It executed non-strategic asset sales, including a Harborside land parcel for $75 million, to reduce leverage and support Core FFO. Q3 2025 results showed higher revenue and raised full-year Core FFO guidance, while sustainability achievements and a steady $0.08 quarterly dividend underlined strategic focus. Today’s tax treatment disclosure for 2025 distributions fits into this pattern of providing detailed information around shareholder payouts.

5 terms

cusip financial

"The Company's total distributions of $0.32 per share of common stock (CUSIP #554489104)"

A CUSIP is a nine-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a U.S. or Canadian financial security—such as a stock, bond, or fund share—like a Social Security number for an investment. It matters to investors because brokers, exchanges and record-keepers use the CUSIP to match trades, track ownership, settle transactions and pull accurate records, reducing errors and ensuring money and securities go to the right place.

real estate investment trust (reit) financial

"Veris Residential, Inc. is a forward-thinking real estate investment trust (REIT) that primarily owns"

A real estate investment trust (REIT) is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-generating real estate like shopping malls, apartments, or office buildings. Investors buy shares of the REIT, making it easy for people to invest in real estate without buying property themselves, and it often pays regular dividends from the rent it collects.

section 1250 gain regulatory

"UNRECAPTURED | SECTION | RETURN OF CAPITAL ... SECTION 1250 GAIN"

Section 1250 gain is the part of profit from selling depreciable real estate (like buildings) that reflects earlier tax deductions for wear-and-tear. Think of it as repaying the tax benefit you received when writing off the property’s aging; that portion is taxed differently than ordinary capital gains, with a special higher rate apply­ing to investors’ after‑tax proceeds. Investors care because it reduces the cash they keep from a sale and can change the effective return on a property investment.

section 199a dividends regulatory

"UNRECAPTURED | SECTION | RETURN OF CAPITAL ... SECTION | 199A DIVIDENDS"

Section 199A dividends are certain dividend payments from real estate investment trusts (REITs) and publicly traded partnerships that qualify for a special U.S. tax deduction allowing up to a 20% reduction of the income they create. For investors, that means these payouts are taxed differently than regular dividend income—they don’t get the lower capital gains rate but can lower taxable income through the deduction, similar to getting a partial tax rebate on that income.

return of capital financial

"SECTION 1250 GAIN | 199A DIVIDENDS | DISTRIBUTIONS ... RETURN OF CAPITAL"

Return of capital is when an investor receives money from their investment that is not considered profit or earnings but rather a portion of the original amount they invested. It’s similar to getting back part of your initial savings rather than gains from it. This matters because it can affect how much money an investor still has in the investment and may have tax implications.
