Cousins Properties (CUZ) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Cousins Properties (CUZ) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Cousins Properties Inc. is expected to benefit from rising core occupancy and net effective rents due to strong leasing activity and a low number of lease expirations. The company's forecasted 2025 funds from operations (FFO) estimate has been increased to $2.84 per share, reflecting positive impacts from a recent acquisition in Dallas and improved cash returns. Additionally, favorable demographic shifts and job growth in the Sunbelt cities where it operates present further opportunities for growth in leasing and revenue generation.
Bears say
Cousins Properties Inc. faces a declining occupancy outlook, with projections showing a drop to 89.2% by year-end 2025 from 90.1% at mid-2025, primarily influenced by the departure of significant tenants such as Bank of America. Additionally, a broader economic concern stems from slumping national job growth, which has prompted a reduction in the price target due to lowered expectations for price-to-funds from operations (P/FFO) and price-to-net asset value (P/NAV). The company is also exposed to significant risks from potential recessionary impacts on office employment, along with the ongoing trend toward remote work, which could further diminish demand for office space and tenant commitments.
