CPT · Camden Property Trust
The AI's read
Construction fees and interest income drove the FFO beat. Lease rates also improved by 1.2 percentage points from the prior quarter, and October occupancy was 95.2%. Camden cut its expected growth in rent and property income at existing communities. It kept full-year core FFO at $6.75 per share, so those signs point in different directions. Camden used its $1.625 billion California sale to repay debt, fund acquisitions, and buy back shares. But it canceled 2 planned acquisitions after interest-rate moves, leaving the results mixed.
