Highwoods Properties (HIW) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Highwoods Properties (HIW) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Highwoods Properties Inc. is well-positioned for future growth, backed by anticipated tenant demand driven by job growth and a trend toward higher quality office spaces, which could enhance its performance in the real estate market. The company's portfolio is expected to benefit from slightly positive market rent growth in urban regions, which is projected to result in a single-digit positive average GAAP rent spread over the upcoming quarters. Additionally, an upward adjustment of the 2025 funds from operations (FFO) estimate to $3.42 per share aligns with management's guidance and reflects confidence in the company's financial stability and growth potential.
Bears say
Highwoods Properties Inc. is projected to experience a normalized Funds From Operations (FFO) decline of 5.4% in 2025, indicating potential challenges in revenue performance within its urban market portfolio. The company's 2026 FFO estimate has also been reduced to $3.57 per share, falling below the consensus expectation of $3.59 per share, indicating a weakening outlook. Key risks that may exacerbate this decline include rising interest rates and cap rates, weakening fundamentals in their primary markets, and reduced returns from potential acquisitions or developments.
