Shares of Simon Property Group (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/spg#NYSE">SPG</a>) have soared 17.4%% in the year-to-date period compared with its industry&#39;s growth of 7.8%.
This retail real estate investment trust&#39;s (REITs) portfolio of premium retail assets in the United States and abroad, the adoption of omnichannel retailing, focus on mixed-use developments and healthy balance sheet strength have enabled it to ride the growth curve so far.

Let us now decipher the factors behind the increase in the stock price and check whether the trend will last.
Simon Property enjoys a wide exposure to retail assets across the United States. Moreover, the company&#39;s international presence fosters sustainable long-term growth as compared with its domestically-focused peers. Its ownership stake in Kl&eacute;pierre facilitates the expansion of its global footprint, which gives it access to premium retail assets in the high barrier-to-entry markets of Europe. We believe that diversification, with respect to both product and geography, will help it grow over the long term.
In the first half of 2024, it signed 572 new leases and 1,251 renewal leases (excluding mall anchors and majors, new development, redevelopment and leases with terms of one year or less) with a fixed minimum rent across its U.S. Malls and Premium Outlets portfolio.
Given the favorable retail real estate environment, this leasing momentum is expected to continue in the upcoming quarters. As of June 30, 2024, the ending occupancy for the U.S. Malls and Premium Outlets portfolio came in at 95.6%, up 90 basis points from 94.7% as of June 30, 2023. We project the 2024 year-end occupancy for this portfolio to be 95.7%.
Simon Property&#39;s adoption of an omni-channel strategy and successful tie-ups with premium retailers have paid off well. Its online retail platform, coupled with an omnichannel strategy, is likely to be accretive to its long-term growth. The company is also focused on tapping its growth opportunities by assisting digital brands enhance their brick-and-mortar presence.
Also, its efforts to explore the mixed-use development option, which has gained immense popularity in recent years, has enabled it to tap the growth opportunities in areas where people prefer to live, work and play.
<h2>SPG&#39;s Balance Sheet &amp; ROE</h2>
The retail REIT maintains a healthy balance sheet position and has $11.2 billion of liquidity as of the end of the second quarter of 2024. As of June 30, 2024, Simon Property&#39;s total secured debt to total assets was 17%, while the fixed-charge coverage ratio was 4.3, ahead of the required level.
SPG also enjoys a corporate investment-grade credit rating of A- from Standard and Poor&#39;s and a senior unsecured rating of A3 from Moody&#39;s, rendering it favorable access to the debt market. The company&#39;s solid financial footing with ample financial flexibility is likely to support its growth endeavors going forward.
In addition, SPG&#39;s trailing 12-month return on equity is 78.14% compared with the industry&#39;s average of 6.28%. This reflects that the company is more efficient in using shareholders&#39; funds than its peers.
<h2>SPG&#39;s Dividend Payments</h2>
Solid dividend payouts are a massive enticement for REIT investors, and SPG has remained committed to boosting shareholder wealth. Encouragingly, the company has raised its dividend payout 11 times in the last five years, with the latest hike being announced in August 2024, concurrent with the second-quarter 2024 earnings release.
Given SPG&#39;s solid operating platform, opportunities for growth, and decent financial position compared with the industry, we expect the dividend rate to be sustainable in the upcoming period.
<h2>Risks Likely to Affect SPG&#39;s Positive Trend</h2>
rowing e-commerce adoption is likely to adversely impact the market share for brick-and-mortar stores and affect retail REITs including Simon Property. Limited consumers&#39; willingness to spend amid macroeconomic uncertainty poses key near-term concerns for the company.
<h2>Stocks to Consider</h2>
Some better-ranked stocks from the retail REIT sector are Brixmor Property Group (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brx#NYSE">BRX</a>) and Tanger, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/skt#NYSE">SKT</a>), each carrying a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at present.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Brixmor&#39;s 2024 FFO per share is pinned at $2.13, suggesting year-over-year growth of 4.4%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Tanger&#39;s 2024 FFO per share stands at $2.09, indicating an increase of 6.6% from the year-ago reported figure.
Note: Anything related to earnings presented in this write-up represents funds from operations (FFO), a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs.

Simon Property Soars 17.4% Year to Date: Will the Trend Last?

Media

On CNBC: Tanger Outlet CEO Discusses Shopping Trends, Consumer Demand

Shares of Kimco Realty (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/kim#NYSE">KIM</a>) have soared 25.9% in the past three months compared with its industry&#39;s rally of 17.2%.
This Jericho, NY-based retail real estate investment trust (REIT) is well-poised to benefit from its portfolio of premium shopping centers, which are predominantly grocery-anchored, in the drivable first-ring suburbs within key major metropolitan Sunbelt and coastal markets. Its focus on developing mixed-use assets and a healthy balance sheet position bode well for long-term growth.
Analysts seem bullish on this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for its 2024 FFO per share grew nearly 1% over the past month to $1.62.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/56/79021.jpg?v=1951636324" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
Let&#39;s find out the factors behind the surge in the stock price.
Kimco&#39;s properties are located in the drivable first-ring suburbs within key major metropolitan Sunbelt and coastal markets. Particularly, 82% of the annual base rent (&quot;ABR&quot;) comes from its top major metro markets. Given the strategic location of its properties, it is likely to witness healthy demand in the near term, boosting leasing activity.
Kimco enjoys a diverse tenant base, led by a healthy mix of essential, necessity-based tenants and omni-channel retailers. National/regional tenants accounted for 81% of Kimco&#39;s pro rata ABR as of the end of the second quarter of 2024. Given the strength of its retailers with a developed omnichannel presence, the company is likely to be able to generate stable cash flows.
During uncertain times, the grocery component saved the grace of the retail REITs. As of June 30, 2024, RPT&#39;s acquisition has boosted its ABR from grocery-anchored centers to 83% from 81% in 2022. KIM has set a target to reach 85% of its ABR from this segment.
In the second quarter of 2024, Kimco witnessed 54 consecutive quarters of positive leasing spreads, indicating solid pricing power across its high-quality portfolio. Also, retention rates for the grocery portfolio remain higher compared with the non-grocery portfolio. Given the necessity-driven nature of Kimco&#39;s grocery-anchored portfolio, it is likely to continue witnessing healthy leasing activity in the upcoming period and remains well-positioned to tide over challenging times.
Apart from having a focus on grocery and home-improvement tenants, the company emphasizes mixed-use assets clustered in strong economic metropolitan statistical areas. The mixed-use assets category is benefiting from the recovery in both the apartment and retail sectors.
<h2>KIM&#39;s Strategic Acquisition &amp; Redevelopment Projects</h2>
Kimco has been following an opportunistic investment policy to enhance its overall portfolio quality. This includes divesting its joint venture assets and using the proceeds to fund acquisitions and development and redevelopment projects. In the first half of 2024, the company disposed of 11 operating properties and seven land parcels in separate transactions for an aggregate sales price of $254.1 million.
The acquisition of RPT in January 2024 has benefited the company by increasing scale in high-growth target markets and preserving balance sheet strength. The company remains confident in achieving its 2024 acquisitions range of $300 million to $350 million, which is inclusive of structured investments.
It is actively pursuing redevelopment opportunities within its operating portfolio. The company projects its capital commitment toward these redevelopment projects and re-tenanting efforts for the remainder of 2024 will be within $225-$275 million.
<h2>KIM&#39;s Solid Balance Sheet Position</h2>
Moreover, Kimco maintains a solid balance sheet position. It exited the second quarter of 2024 with $1.9 billion of immediate liquidity. Its consolidated weighted average debt maturity profile is 8.7 years. It also enjoys investment-grade ratings of BBB+ from S&amp;P and Baa1 from Moody&#39;s, rendering it favorable access to the debt market. With a healthy financial footing, KIM is well-positioned to capitalize on long-term growth opportunities.
<h2>Risks Likely to Affect KIM&#39;s Positive Trend</h2>
A rise in e-commerce adoption and efforts of online retailers to go deeper into the grocery business are concerns. Kimco faces competition from several real estate companies and developers who compete with the company for leasing space in shopping centers for tenants. This may affect Kimco&#39;s ability to raise rental rates, including renewal rates and fill up vacancies.
<h2>Stocks to Consider</h2>
Some better-ranked stocks from the retail REIT sector are Tanger Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/skt#NYSE">SKT</a>) and Brixmor Property Group (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brx#NYSE">BRX</a>), each currently carrying a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at present.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for SKT&#39;s 2024 FFO per share stands at $2.09, indicating an increase of 6.6% from the year-ago reported figure.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for BRX&#39;s 2024 FFO per share is pinned at $2.13, suggesting year-over-year growth of 4.4%.

<h3>Unmasking the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
Within the legal framework, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities as per Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to disclose their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
The initiation of a new purchase by a company insider serves as a strong indication that they expect the stock to rise.
However, insider sells may not always signal a bearish view and can be influenced by various factors.
<h3>Transaction Codes To Focus On</h3>
In the domain of transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> frequently turn their focus to those taking place in the open market, as meticulously outlined in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Real estate has been having a decent 2024. The S&amp;P 500 Real Estate Select Sector SPDR (ARCA:XLRE) has advanced 11.1% year to date as of Sept. 4. The sector declined till the end of June. However, optimism about the Fed introducing rate cuts in the economy and falling mortgage rates seem to have triggered a turnaround.
Buoyed by signals from the Fed, the benchmark 30-year average mortgage rate fell to 6.5% late last week, its lowest level since May 2023. The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell further on Aug. 30 to 6.37%. The National Association of Realtors (&quot;NAR&quot;) expects the 30-year fixed mortgage rate to average 6.9% in its recent quarterly forecast published in June. This is an upward revision from its previous forecast of 6.7%. NAR has also revised its forecast upward for the fourth quarter to 6.5-6.7%. It expects that the second half of 2024 will witness moderately lower mortgage rates, higher home sales and price stability.
Elevated mortgage rates have reduced affordability and hence, dampened home sales. It has also put pressure on existing homeowners with adjustable-rate mortgages who have seen their monthly payments go through the roof. Overall confidence in the housing market remains fairly subdued, according to the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI). The index changed only slightly in July, falling to 42 from 43 in June.
However, with rate cuts almost certainly starting from September, coupled with the fact that mortgage rates are coming down, there might be better times ahead for home buyers. Even in case of an unlikely recession, a higher inventory of homes would bring prices further down, luring first-time buyers. One must, thus, start considering parking part of their investments in promising stocks in the sector.

This included Crocker Commons in Cleveland, OH; Maple Corner in Nashville, TN; Village Plaza in Houston, TX; and Brookhaven Station in Atlanta, GA.
As previously announced, the company has successfully closed and funded a mortgage facility amounting to $530 million, which is secured by 23 properties. Additionally, it has repaid its unsecured term loan of $200 million, terminated its revolving credit facility of $950 million and executed a one-for-four reverse stock split of its common shares. Moreover, in August, the company redeemed all of its outstanding senior unsecured notes, resulting in no remaining unsecured debt.
SITE Centers has been following an aggressive capital-recycling program through which it is divesting slow-growth assets and redeploying the proceeds for the acquisitions of premium U.S. shopping centers. These centers offer strong opportunities for rent growth and redevelopment activities.
<h2>The Initiative Strengthens SITC&#39;s Balance Sheet Position</h2>
Such match-funding initiatives relieve pressure off the company&#39;s balance sheet while paving the way for top-line and cash-flow growth and adding value to the portfolio in the long term.
This retail REIT has a healthy balance sheet position with ample liquidity. As of June 30, 2024, it had $2.1 billion of liquidity and an average pro-rata net debt to adjusted EBITDA of 3.4X and fixed charge coverage was 3.9X.
It also enjoys investment-grade credit ratings of BBB-/Baa3/BBB from S&amp;P/ Moody&#39;s/ Fitch, respectively, which render it favorable access to the debt market. With strong financial footing and enough financial flexibility, it is well-placed to capitalize on long-term growth opportunities.
However, given the conveniences of online shopping, growing e-commerce adoption is concerning for SITE Centers. Potential tenant bankruptcies in the near term could affect its profitability and hurt occupancy. A high interest rate environment remain concern.
In the past six months, shares of this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company have gained 8.4%, outperforming the industry&#39;s growth of 4.7%.

SITE Centers Disposes of 11 Shopping Centers and Acquires 4

Regency Centers (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/reg#NASDAQ">REG</a>) recently announced the opening of Oakley Shops at Laurel Fields, a new ground-up development anchored by Safeway in Oakley, CA.
Oakley Shops represents Regency&#39;s first development in the Northern California submarket and will encompass around 79,000 square feet of retail space. This development will be located at the signalized intersection of Laurel Road and O&#39;Hara Avenue, aiming to fill the gap of insufficient high-quality retail and grocery options in the surrounding area.
Safeway is set to occupy around 56,000 square feet at Oakley Shops, with an additional 23,000 square feet dedicated to quality retail, restaurant and essential services. Several prospective merchants are presently engaged in different stages of lease negotiations and discussions, with further announcements expected in the near future.
Regency is well-poised to benefit from its strategically located portfolio of premium shopping centers, concentrated in affluent suburban areas and near urban trade areas where consumers have high spending power. Over the years, the company has made several developments in the key markets of the United States to bolster growth.
In the second quarter, REG started approximately $40 million of new development and redevelopment projects, bringing total project starts to $120 million since the beginning of the year through Aug. 1, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, Regency Centers&#39; in-process development and redevelopment projects had estimated net project costs of $578 million. Given the company&#39;s prudent financial management, it is well-poised to capitalize on such opportunities.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
Given the prime location of the property and its popularity, it is likely to draw in substantial consumer footfall and drive sales, making the move strategic for Regency.
Over the past three months, shares of this Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) company have gained 20.2% compared with the industry&#39;s growth of 14.4%.

Simon Property (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/spg#NYSE">SPG</a>) and bp&#39;s global EV charging business, bp pulse joined hands for the installation and operation of more than 900 ultra-fast EV chargers at 75 sites in the United States. The move will benefit Simon in expanding its EV charging options across its portfolio and lure more shoppers.
The first location with chargers from bp pulse will be made open to the public in early 2026 and support vehicles from nearly all EV makers. The Simon portfolio aligns with bp pulse&#39;s strategy to deploy ultra-fast charging across the West Coast, East Coast, Sun Belt and Great Lakes.
Simon focuses on providing best-in-class brands, amenities, experiences and sustainable practices to their customers and the communities it serves. The latest move is also in line with such efforts and is likely to drive healthy demand for its properties, aiding leasing activity, occupancy levels and rent growth.
Simon Property has been restructuring its portfolio, aiming at premium acquisitions and transformative redevelopments. In fact, over the past years, the company has been investing billions to transform its properties, focusing on creating value and driving footfall.
Its focus on supporting omnichannel retailing and developing mixed-use assets is encouraging. Simon Property also capitalized on buying recognized retail brands in bankruptcy. With the brands generating a decent amount from digital sales, investments in them seem strategic for Simon Property.
Over the past three months, shares of this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company have increased 2.5% compared with the industry&#39;s rise of 2.2%.
