Highwoods Properties (HIW) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Highwoods Properties (HIW) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Highwoods Properties Inc. operates primarily in urban markets such as Atlanta, Raleigh, Nashville, and Tampa, focusing on the acquisition and management of office buildings that generate rental revenue almost exclusively. The company is projected to benefit from anticipated positive market rent growth, contributing to an expected single-digit average GAAP rent spread in the coming quarters, which signals a healthy demand for its property offerings. Additionally, the upward revision of the company's 2025 funds from operations (FFO) estimate from $3.41 to $3.42 per share indicates a strengthening financial performance that aligns with management’s guidance range and surpasses market expectations.
Bears say
Highwoods Properties Inc. is projected to experience a substantial decline in normalized Funds From Operations (FFO), with a 5.4% decrease anticipated for 2025, followed by modest growth of 4.2% in 2026. The company's fundamentals face multiple downside risks, including the potential for rising interest rates and cap rates, which could diminish investor demand and weaken market conditions. Additionally, the adjustment of the 2026 FFO estimate to $3.57 per share, falling short of consensus expectations, further underscores the challenges facing Highwoods Properties' financial outlook.
