Highwoods Properties (HIW) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Highwoods Properties (HIW) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Highwoods Properties Inc. is well-positioned to benefit from improving tenant demand, driven by accelerating job growth and a potential flight to quality among tenants, which contributes to a favorable market outlook. The expected slight positive market rent growth in the company's key urban areas is anticipated to yield a single-digit positive average GAAP rent spread over the next several quarters. Additionally, the upward adjustment of the 2025 Funds From Operations (FFO) estimate to $3.42 per share, slightly above consensus and within management's guidance range, indicates robust financial performance and growth potential.
Bears say
Highwoods Properties Inc. is projected to experience a 5.4% year-over-year decline in normalized funds from operations (FFO) in 2025, followed by modest growth of 4.2% in 2026. The company faces considerable downside risks, including rising interest rates and cap rates, which could lead to decreased investor demand and weakened fundamentals in its primary urban markets. Additionally, revised FFO estimates for 2026 have been lowered to $3.57 per share, positioning it below the consensus estimate of $3.59 per share, further indicating potential challenges ahead.
