WPC Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
W.P. Carey Inc. shows a positive outlook based on revised estimates of Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) per share, with projected increases of $0.01 for 2025 and $0.06 for 2026, primarily attributed to an improved funding plan involving operating property sales. The company’s fourth quarter 2024 results have provided enhanced visibility into its earnings growth potential, justifying a valuation more aligned with the Net Lease subsector. Additionally, the anticipated positive outcomes for certain tenants and a shift towards disposition-driven funding are expected to contribute approximately 1% higher annual AFFO accretion, further bolstering W.P. Carey's financial performance prospects.
Bears say
W.P. Carey's outlook appears negative primarily due to a projected decline in adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) growth, which is estimated at only 3.6%, indicating challenges in maintaining stable revenue growth. The company faces significant risks, including geopolitical exposure from its diverse geographic holdings, tenant bankruptcies, and a below-average concentration of investment grade rated tenants, which could further strain its financial health. Additionally, concerns regarding spread contraction from either cap rate compression or rising capital costs could impede acquisition strategies, limiting potential revenue streams and investment opportunities.
