Insights

This leasing update from Postal Realty Trust is significantly positive for the company's financial outlook. The successful negotiation of new leases for 2023 and 2024 with the USPS demonstrates strong tenant relationships and portfolio stability. Key positive aspects include:

  • 3% annual rent escalations on new leases, enhancing predictable revenue growth
  • Mix of 5 and 10-year lease terms, providing long-term cash flow visibility
  • $1.5 million in total net lump sum catch-up payments, boosting near-term income
  • Progress on 2023 leases (57% of expired rent) and 2024 leases (51% of expired/expiring rent)

The introduction of 10-year lease terms for some properties is particularly noteworthy, as it reduces re-leasing risk and enhances the portfolio's overall stability. The proactive approach to 2025 lease negotiations also bodes well for maintaining high occupancy rates. While the full financial impact isn't quantified, these developments should positively influence the company's FFO and dividend stability.

CEDARHURST, N.Y., Sept. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Postal Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: PSTL) (the “Company”), an internally managed real estate investment trust that owns and manages over 1,950 properties leased primarily to the United States Postal Service (the “USPS”), ranging from last-mile post offices to industrial facilities, announced today an update on its ongoing lease negotiations with the USPS.

Leasing Update

  • Agreed to new rents on all expired 2023 leases and the majority of the expired and scheduled to expire 2024 leases.
  • As of September 25, 2024, the Company had received 162 fully executed new leases from the USPS, representing 2023 and 2024 leases that have expired and are scheduled to expire. The 2023 leases received represent nearly 57% of the aggregate 2023 expired rent and the 2024 leases received represent 51% of the aggregate 2024 expired and scheduled to expire rent. This excludes leases subject to renewal options and leases negotiated by prior ownership.
  • These executed leases contained 3% annual rent escalations resulting in 19% of the owned portfolio being subject to annual rent escalations.
  • The 2023 and 2024 leases contained a mix of five and ten-year lease terms.
  • Received a total net lump sum catch-up payment of approximately $1.2 million from the USPS related to the new 2023 and 2024 leases executed during the third quarter, bringing the total amount received to $1.5 million. Net lump sum catch-up payments represent the difference between the prior lease rent and the agreed upon new lease rent and are paid upon the execution of new leases that were previously expired.

“Our team has been working diligently with the Postal Service to modify our historical leasing process to enable more efficient lease negotiations and timely lease execution. We are pleased with the results of the 2023 and 2024 lease negotiations. With continued annual rent escalations and the introduction of ten years of duration on a subset of leases, we believe we will be able to enhance our internal growth story and maximize long-term shareholder value. Discussions are in progress with the Postal Service on the 2025 lease expirations with the mutual goal of executing new leases prior to lease expiration. We look forward to providing further details in our next quarterly update,” stated Andrew Spodek, Chief Executive Officer.
