COLUMBIA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Corporate Office Properties Trust (“COPT” or the “Company”) (NYSE: OFC) announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Management Comments

Stephen E. Budorick, COPT’s President & Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our portfolio of office and data center properties that support priority missions at U.S. defense installations continues to produce strong results, and distinguishes us from other office companies. Demand for our Defense/IT Locations has driven 1.2 million square feet of development leasing to-date, which exceeds our 2021 goal. Vacancy leasing in the third quarter was a very strong 215,000 square feet--our best quarterly volume since the third quarter of 2019--and brought our total for the nine months to 420,000 square feet. Importantly, tenants are committing to lease term lengths that are at or above pre-pandemic levels. Our Development Leasing Pipeline and Activity Ratio remain robust, which leads us to expect customers to continue making long-term commitments to our Defense/IT Locations. Based on our outperformance this quarter, we are increasing the midpoint of full-year guidance for FFO per share, as adjusted for comparability, to $2.27, which is 8-cents above our original midpoint and represents 7.1% growth over 2020’s elevated results.”
