WPC Stock Forecast & Price Target
WPC Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
W.P. Carey Inc. has demonstrated a positive outlook as evidenced by upward revisions in estimates for Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) per share for 2025 and 2026, indicating a strengthening financial position. Notably, the company's Q4 2024 results have enhanced visibility into its earnings growth trajectory, suggesting the potential for improved valuation within the Net Lease subsector. Furthermore, an anticipated increase in tenant credit quality and an advantageous funding strategy through property sales rather than traditional debt is projected to contribute to a 1% higher annual AFFO accretion, underpinning a solid growth forecast.
Bears say
W.P. Carey Inc. faces several headwinds that contribute to a negative outlook for its stock, including a projected AFFO growth rate of only 3.6% and significant risks associated with investment opportunities and geographic exposure. The company is challenged by reliance on less efficient investment funding scenarios that may reduce leverage and overall accretion, as well as market uncertainties affecting its acquisition strategies, compounded by tenant bankruptcies and potential declines in net operating income. Additionally, W.P. Carey's portfolio exhibits below-average credit quality among tenants and increased exposure to geopolitical risks, raising concerns about the sustainability of its cash flows and dividend commitments.
