Insights

Plymouth Industrial REIT's Q1 2025 update reveals robust operational performance across multiple fronts. The company achieved 16.2% cash basis rental rate increases (excluding the St. Louis lease impact), with new leases commanding an impressive 22.1% premium. This rate growth significantly outpaces inflation and demonstrates strong market positioning in their industrial portfolio.

The acquisition of six industrial buildings totaling 801,161 square feet for $65.1 million at a 6.8% initial NOI yield represents accretive capital deployment. These 100% leased properties with 4.4-year weighted average lease terms provide immediate cash flow stability while enhancing the company's footprint in strategic logistics hubs like Cincinnati and Atlanta.

The portfolio's same-store occupancy of 94.7% and overall occupancy of 94.3% demonstrate healthy demand for their assets. Particularly noteworthy is Plymouth's proactive leasing strategy, having already secured commitments for 56.3% of 2025 expirations, significantly reducing near-term rollover risk.

While the St. Louis lease somewhat dilutes the overall rental growth statistics (reducing new lease growth from 22.1% to 0.9% when included), this appears to be an outlier in an otherwise strong leasing environment. The company's focus on functional industrial space in key logistics markets continues to yield positive operational results despite varying performance across individual assets.

Announces Details for First Quarter Earnings Conference Call

BOSTON, April 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plymouth Industrial REIT, Inc. (NYSE: PLYM) (the “Company” or “Plymouth”) provided an activity update for the first quarter of 2025. The Company also announced details for its first quarter earnings conference call and webcast to be held on May 2, 2025.

Jeff Witherell, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Plymouth, noted, “Our strong leasing activity in the first quarter underscores the continued demand for well-located, functional industrial space across our markets. Additionally, our acquisition activity remains disciplined and strategic, as we continue to expand our footprint in key logistics hubs with assets that we expect will offer immediate cash flow and long-term value creation.”

These leases included 1,540,756 square feet of renewal leases and 896,511 square feet of new leases. Excluding the effect of the previously announced executed two-year lease at our 769,500-square-foot Class A building in St. Louis (the “St. Louis lease”) that commenced on January 15, 2025, rental rates under these leases reflect a 16.2% increase on a cash basis with renewal leases reflecting a 15.0% increase on a cash basis and new leases reflecting a 22.1% increase on a cash basis.

Including the St. Louis lease, the overall rental rates would have increased 12.1% on a cash basis and new leases would have increased 1.7% on a cash basis.

Market Portrait Series        
We issued our second Market Portrait with Avison Young highlighting the Memphis industrial market - America’s Distribution Center. The Portrait can be found on our corporate website under Portfolio / Portfolio Map / Memphis.

Known as “America’s Distribution Center,” Memphis’ freight transportation infrastructure connects companies to nearly every major national and international market. Home to the FedEx World SuperHub, Memphis offers local companies an advantage as the cutoff time to drop off packages for next day delivery is later than counterparts in other U.S. cities. The market is served by five Class 1 railroads and is a key market where the eastern railroads CSX and NS can interconnect with western railroads BNSF and UP. In addition, Canadian National offers a key connection from the Gulf Coast to Canada via Memphis. The Memphis region is serviced by six interstate highways, the most significant being I-55 connecting Chicago to New Orleans and I-40 connecting California to North Carolina.

As of December 31, 2024, Memphis was our largest wholly-owned single market position with 63 buildings across approximately 6.4 million square feet.
