WPC Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
W.P. Carey's adjusted funds from operations per share (AFFO/sh) estimates for 2025 and 2026 have increased modestly, reflecting the anticipated benefits from a more favorable funding approach. The company's fourth-quarter results for 2024 have enhanced visibility into its earnings growth potential, positioning W.P. Carey favorably within the Net Lease subsector. Furthermore, the analysis suggests that strategic asset disposals will contribute to annual AFFO growth, while improvements in net asset value per share (NAVPS) estimate also indicate an optimistic outlook for the company's financial health.
Bears say
W.P. Carey Inc. faces fundamental challenges that contribute to a negative outlook, primarily stemming from low anticipated AFFO growth of just 3.6%, coupled with an inability to secure accretive acquisitions amid elevated market uncertainty. The company is also exposed to significant geographic and currency risks, notably stemming from its European investments, which heighten the potential for tenant bankruptcies and loss of net operating income (NOI), possibly leading to dividend cuts. Additionally, the firm's below-average concentration of investment-grade tenants presents credit risks, further complicating its ability to maintain financial stability in uncertain economic conditions.
This aggregate rating is based on analysts' research of W. P. Carey and is not a guaranteed prediction by Public.com or investment advice.
