DEA Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Easterly Government Properties Inc. stands to benefit from a favorable environment for growth, underpinned by strong lease spreads and the potential for increased acquisition volumes as investment spreads improve. The company’s reliance on accretive acquisitions positions it well for growth, particularly if its cost of capital decreases, allowing for wider investment spreads and more attractive deal structures. Additionally, a stable tenant base, comprising U.S. government agencies, may attract more investors during periods of market uncertainty, contributing to a positive outlook for the company's financial performance and an increase in its 2026 Funds From Operations (FFO) estimate, reflecting management's guidance.
Bears say
Easterly Government Properties Inc. (DEA) has shown significant underperformance, with a year-to-date decline of 25%, contrasting sharply with the VNQ's positive performance of 1%. Key concerns affecting the stock's outlook include potential budget cuts to government agencies, which could lead to reduced demand for leased properties and challenge the company's ability to close acquisitions. Furthermore, a projected average annual normalized funds from operations per share (FFOps) growth of only 0.9% from 2025-2030 highlights the company's struggles with external growth opportunities and a dependency on favorable capital conditions.
