Monday, Aug. 3, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. ET Chief Executive Officer - Anne Olson Chief Financial Officer - Bhairav Patel Senior Vice President of Investments and Capital Markets - Grant Campbell Operator: Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining us, and welcome to the Centerspace Q2 2026 Earnings Call. [Operator Instructions] Presentation will now begin. Anne Olson: Thank you, and good morning. Centerspace's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, was filed with the SEC yesterday after market close. Our earnings release and supplemental disclosure package are available on centerspacehomes.com and were filed on Form 8-K. Today's remarks include forward-looking statements based on management's current views and assumptions. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties discussed in our risk factors and other SEC filings. We cannot guarantee these statements will materialize, and you should not place undue reliance on them. Please refer to our earnings release for reconciliations of any non-GAAP measures discussed on today's call. Joining me today are Bhairav Patel, our Chief Financial Officer; and Grant Campbell, Senior Vice President of Investments and Capital Markets. During our remarks, we will give a brief update related to our portfolio repositioning and operating trends, after which Grant will elaborate on the status of our dispositions and investment activities, and we'll close out with Bhairav providing context for the guidance updates we outlined in our release last evening. In the last 14 months, we have sold or are under contract to sell 20 communities for approximately $530 million. These transactions have significantly improved the profile of our portfolio and balance sheet, increasing exposure to institutional markets, eliminating exposure to tertiary markets like St. Cloud, Rapid City and Bismarck and reducing leverage. Executing the strategy is intentional. Our goal is a higher quality portfolio with stronger growth potential, lower net debt to EBITDA and greater financial flexibility. Operationally, the quarter was in line with our expectations. We have updated our same-store reporting to reflect the disposition activity, and now our same-store results are more weighted to Denver and Minneapolis. This impacted our overall revenue, which was flat year-over-year, primarily due to concessions in the Denver market. However, disciplined expense management led to NOI growth of 30 basis points in the second quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2025. Expenses declined 10 basis points year-over-year as our teams controlled costs across categories. Most of the savings came from lower R&M costs, including term expenses. Within the same-store, we had an excellent quarter for retention. Of residents with lease expirations, 61.3% of our residents renewed at renewal rate growth of 3.4%. New lease rate growth was negative 60 basis points, which was an improvement of 190 basis points over the first quarter and resulted in blended lease growth of 1.8%. And the blended lease increases have held steady through July. While Denver remains softer as new supply continues to be absorbed, it is notable that our blended spreads for July were positive. And overall, the softness in Denver is offset by strong results out of North Dakota, Nebraska and Minnesota. In particular, Minneapolis delivered blended rent growth of 3.4% with retention at 65%, evidence that the market has absorbed the elevated supply that had challenged many markets across the country. We are capturing rent increases in markets where supply has been absorbed and new supply is muted. Outside of the Mountain West, all of our markets had blended lease growth in June in excess of 3%. While we believe we have stability in operations and an opportunity as deliveries diminish in the Mountain West into 2027, we also have a strong opportunity to capture value through our portfolio repositioning. Grant, can you discuss more specifics on our disposition and capital markets activities? Grant Campbell: Thanks, Anne, and good morning, everyone. We continue making progress on our portfolio optimization and deleveraging plan announced in early June. On June 29, we sold Civic Lofts in Denver, Colorado for $30 million. This was a smaller community relative to our other Denver assets and no longer core to our long-term strategy in that market. The transaction represented a mid-3% cap rate on T12 financials, including non-stabilized vacancy and concessions this particular urban Denver submarket is experiencing today. From a stabilized operations perspective, the transaction represents a low 5% cap rate. More broadly in Denver, first half of the year transaction volume is down 46% from the same time period in 2025 and 72% compared to 2024. Despite lower transaction volumes, high conviction investors have recently been active on individual community acquisitions. We have seen recent acquisitions at significant discounts to replacement costs in urban submarkets with going in cap rates at mid-4% and below, along with select newer vintage suburban communities pricing at high 4% to low 5% in-place cap rates. These investment decisions are informed by first half of 2026 absorption figures being the highest on record in Denver, market's continued high cost of homeownership and deceleration of the new construction pipeline. Moving to other portfolio markets. On July 9, we closed the sale of 5 communities in Rapid City, South Dakota for $66 million. This sale exited us from the Rapid City market. In Bismarck, North Dakota, we remain in process on executing the sale of 6 communities for approximately $150 million with closing expected in August. This transaction will exit us from the Bismarck market. Pricing on the Rapid City and Bismarck sales is a mid-6% cap rate, and we saw strong interest from potential buyers, including both regional and national platforms, highlighting the capital interest in secondary markets driven by healthy regional economies and measured new supply pipelines. In total, our disposition activity in Denver, Rapid City and Bismarck includes 12 communities, 2 market exits and total sale price of approximately $245 million, all consistent with pro forma outcomes described in our early June portfolio optimization plan. In addition to these initiatives, we also made the decision to sell 2 communities in Minneapolis. This was driven by strong asset pricing received given the strength of Minneapolis fundamentals, management of our portfolio concentrations and further advancement of balance sheet strategy. On July 14, we closed the sale of Red 20 and Ironwood, 2 newer vintage communities totaling 312 homes were sold for $73.8 million. In aggregate, all 2026 disposition activity includes 14 communities, 1,810 apartment homes and total sale price of approximately $320 million. These sales improve our overall portfolio quality and operating efficiency, including average rent per community increasing 1.4% and average homes per community increasing from 201 to 222. Our 2026 dispositions have allowed us to move forward with certainty and speed in executing deleveraging outcomes associated with our strategic review and manage related tax implications. All of our sales priced inside of the implied mid- to high 7% portfolio cap rate our stock currently trades at. Given this valuation disconnect, we bought back shares in the quarter, repurchasing $2.5 million at an average price of $55.54 per share. While active with buybacks, we are also focused on our leverage profile, seeking to strike an appropriate balance between the 2, and this quarter's initiatives achieved this. I'll now turn it over to Bhairav to discuss our financial results, balance sheet and revised guidance. Bhairav Patel: Thanks, Grant, and hello, everyone. Last night, we reported second quarter Core FFO of $1.27 per diluted share, driven by a 30 basis point year-over-year increase in same-store NOI as revenues and expenses remained relatively flat. Our same-store results exclude NOI from the 14 communities sold or held for sale as of quarter end. As a result, they are not comparable to first quarter same-store results or prior same-store guidance, both of which included those assets. Turning to full year 2026 expectations. The reconstitution of our same-store pool to exclude the 14 communities now results in expected same-store NOI growth ranging from flat to down 1% year-over-year. At the midpoint, we expect revenue growth of 50 basis points and expense growth of 2%. Most of the change in same-store guidance reflects the updated same-store pool as Bismarck and Minneapolis had strong first halves and were expected to continue performing well. These communities will not meaningfully contribute to earnings in the second half of the year. And as a result, we are lowering our Core FFO midpoint to $4.63 per share. We will use the proceeds to fully repay our line of credit and expect to have approximately $100 million of cash on hand, including $50 million to $60 million earmarked for a special distribution that may be required to maintain our REIT status. We continue to refine our taxable income projections and any required special distribution would likely occur in the fourth quarter. Lastly, we expect full year net G&A and property management expenses of $28.3 million at the midpoint, excluding nonroutine severance and strategic review items. The reductions we implemented in connection with the dispositions reflect our ongoing effort to align our overhead structure with the evolution of our portfolio. However, the reduction in overhead this year does not fully capture the total impact because several actions were implemented midyear. We expect our annualized run rate, which better captures the overall impact to be lower by approximately $2 million because of the realignment. Moving to the balance sheet. We ended the quarter with more than $240 million of liquidity. Annualized net debt to EBITDA was 7.3x, down sharply from 8.2x in Q1. We had approximately $1 billion of debt outstanding with a weighted average rate of 3.6% and a weighted average maturity of 6.7 years. Disposition activity after quarter end will further strengthen our position. Following the sales, we expect total debt to be below $850 million and assuming $50 million to $60 million in special distributions later this year, net debt to EBITDA should settle in the mid-6x range. Together with approximately $450 million in total liquidity, this would put us in the strongest balance sheet position in our history. To conclude, I want to commend our team for maintaining operating discipline while making significant progress against our strategic plan in a challenging market. With a stronger balance sheet and a more focused portfolio, we are well positioned to deliver solid operating results in the second half of the year. With that, operator, please open the line for questions. Brad Heffern: You added the roughly $75 million to the disposition plan with the Minneapolis properties. I guess, first, can you just sort of talk through that decision? And then can you also talk about the use of those proceeds? Will that also be for deleveraging? Or might you allocate some of that to repurchases or something else? Anne Olson: Thanks for the question. I'm going to have Grant take that and talk a little bit about our decision to sell those additional 2 assets. Grant Campbell: Yes. That decision really resulted from a couple of different things. One, strong pricing received as we work through our process. Two, as we sell out of some of these non-institutional secondary markets, we are mindful of portfolio concentrations and managing that. So this was an ability to not only achieve strong pricing, but also manage our portfolio concentrations as we think about the company moving forward. And then I'll pass it over to Bhairav to talk about proceeds. Bhairav Patel: With respect to proceeds, part of those proceeds may be used to pay down debt. Part of those will be earmarked for our special distribution that we expect to happen in the fourth quarter of this year. And then there's going to be a small amount of cash on hand, which we may hold and use to kind of retire secured mortgages early next year. Brad Heffern: Okay. Got it. And then, Bhairav, maybe sticking with you. Obviously, tons of moving pieces between the sales, timing, deleveraging, et cetera. Not really looking for '27 guidance, but I'm wondering if there's any color you can give us on just what the FFO run rate of the business looks like approximately after all of these transactions are completed. Bhairav Patel: Sure. So I'll start with the impact on the second half. Let's go through some of the big components. About $300 million in sales, Grant mentioned a cap rate of mid underwriting convention, so let's add 50 basis points from an NOI standpoint. So that approximates about $11.5 million for the second half, which is roughly in line with the reduction in NOI compared to our prior guidance. Now that's offset with the use of proceeds that we talked about, which for the second half are about $6.5 million. So the net impact is $5 million. That's roughly $0.25. That's for the second half. Now for the full year, you have to annualize that, but we also have organic growth coming from the rest of the portfolio. So going forward, that's how I would kind of think about the run rate guidance. Obviously, as we annualize what's going to happen in the second half, but there's growth coming from the rest of the portfolio in 2027 as well to offset that. Unknown Analyst: This is Connor on with Jamie. Blended lease spreads improved to 1.8% in 2Q and retention also increased to 61% from 60% last year. Can you walk through what you're seeing in July and whether that improvement is being driven more by new lease pricing, renewals or reduced concessions? Anne Olson: Yes, Connor, I'll start and then Bhairav can add a little bit more color about where we're at, particularly as we send out renewals. Into July, we saw that blended rate hold firm at 1.8%. We're seeing some strengthening in renewal pricing or in new lease pricing, particularly as Denver continues to work through. But really, that strength on the renewal side, which we're expecting to come in, in the kind of mid-3s again. Bhairav, do you have any more color that you want to give on leasing? Bhairav Patel: No, I would just add that renewals remain strong. There's -- new lease trade-outs may fluctuate a little bit just because we typically hit our peak in June and July. But overall, as Anne mentioned, from a blended standpoint, we are seeing solid blended rate growth. I'll also add that for the second half, Denver has a better comp that may have an impact on new lease trade-outs because the concessions that we started offering started in the second half of last year. So we have a favorable comp going into the second half, which may affect new lease trade-outs. Unknown Analyst: That's helpful. And then on Minneapolis, it generated 2.5% NOI growth this quarter, remains the largest NOI contributor within the portfolio. I think last quarter, you described Minneapolis is moving beyond the supply inflection point here. Has anything changed in your outlook? And is this market performing better than you expected entering the year? Anne Olson: Yes. I would say it's performing right in line with our expectations, maybe slightly better as Denver has been slightly down from where we maybe expected, and those are offsetting each other. But definitely have seen really good growth in Minneapolis. We're seeing good new lease rents. We're seeing great retention. And I'd say we're probably now a year into past the inflection point where we really saw a pickup last summer around this time. So feeling really great about Minneapolis. And the supply picture here remains really muted as to new deliveries. And so we think that demand will hold up, and we'll continue to see good results out of Minneapolis. Richard Anderson: Okay. So you -- I think you just kind of went through an annualized full year headwind of $0.50. I think I got that right. And if you're -- and you said offset TBD on organic growth for the rest of the portfolio, all makes sense. So if you're -- if I was trying to do this math before my question came up, so I didn't get fully completed on it. But if there's $120 million of same-store NOI, I think that it's, again, about right. So that's got to grow by a certain percentage to offset -- the basic -- the genesis of the question is, in what world could there be FFO growth next year is basically the question. Anne Olson: Grant, do you want to take Rich's math here? Grant Campbell: No. I mean I think a component to consider there is we mentioned G&A savings on an annualized basis, that's about $2 million or $0.10 a share. So depending on where NOI goes next year, again, we expect Denver to recover in 2027. All of the other markets are doing really well and have passed the supply pressures. So once Denver recovers, depending on organic rent growth, we can at least expect some offset coming from NOI and at least hold FFO steady going forward when you, kind of, combine the organic growth along with some of the savings on the G&A side. Richard Anderson: Okay. Fair enough. You also mentioned the reason to sell Minneapolis was -- I think what you were implying when you were going through the strategic review, that kind of came out in the wash that there would be some strong pricing in certain assets. Is there anything else that came out of that broader process that sort of you're working on as a potential change in the future like you had with the mini sales? Or is that it in terms of what you think might be different from where you're viewing dispositions today? Grant Campbell: Yes, Rich, I think correct. As we work through the process, it was evident that these assets in Minneapolis, we had strong interest. I think a couple other notes that came out of the process. One, we had strong pricing in the secondary markets that was consistent all the way through the process. In terms of additional sales in Minneapolis at this time, we're not thinking about any additional sales in 2026, if that answers your question. Richard Anderson: Yes. And last for me, you had a nice transaction in Salt Lake City. I'm wondering what your thoughts are in that market on a go-forward basis in terms of building scale. Anne Olson: Yes. Thanks, Rich. When we acquired the project in Salt Lake City, our goal was really to scale that market. And we are keeping tabs on, and I'll ask Grant to just give a little bit of an overview here in a second of how that market is trending. But the cost of capital has really changed since we undertook that transaction and the overall market relative to our cost of capital. So the things that are out of our control that are driving our investment decisions remain -- keep us a little bit stymied from a new investment perspective. So as we look to scale that market, we'd be looking for really discrete transactions where we could have sales that match fund that until a time when our cost of capital comes back in line to make that accretive. But Grant, maybe you can just give a couple of senses on how that market is trending and why we still like it. Grant Campbell: Yes, we continue to be highly constructive on the Salt Lake market. We would like to grow our presence there. As Anne mentioned, we are evaluating the best use of a dollar, what is the best capital allocation decision. And right now, given our cost of capital, it is not new acquisitions in Salt Lake. We -- our investment that we made there is hitting its marks from a pro forma underwriting perspective. We're very encouraged by that. There has been a little bit of an uptick in marketed offerings here, in particular, the past 3 to 6 months. We've seen a few more broadly marketed opportunities. We continue to talk to all of our market relationships. We continue to do all the work there. So we're staying close to the market. And when we're in -- if and when we're in a position where that is our best capital allocation decision, we feel confident that we can continue our evolution there. Ami Probandt: I'm just wondering how much of an impact did the asset sales have on same-store revenue? So would you likely have maintained the same-store rev guide if you hadn't sold some of your stronger performing assets? Bhairav Patel: Yes. So from a same-store perspective, recomposition of the pool has a significant impact on our guidance. So and that will be the main contributor to it. For reference, while NOI for the same-store pool is down 1.3% year-over-year, the 14 communities that are now excluded, they were collectively up 7.5%. On the revenue side, the performance is similar as well with Bismarck topping the portfolio and same-store revenue growth and the Minneapolis communities that were included in the dispositions were also solid contributors. So yes, I mean, a majority of the change in the same-store guidance would be because of the dispositions. Ami Probandt: Okay. Got it. That's helpful. And then I was hoping that you could dig in a little bit more in Denver. How is your portfolio performing versus the MSA as a whole? Do you have pricing power in any of the submarkets and is the decline in same-store revenue in Denver that you've been seeing still mostly a supply issue? Or is there anything to note on the demand side? Grant Campbell: Yes. Ami, I'll start there, and then Bhairav can give a little bit of detail. But we continue to really like our Denver portfolio from a position standpoint. We don't have -- we're pretty equally weighted urban and suburban, and we're really along the I-25 corridor. So while we have had a lot of supply impacts for our properties, maybe not as much we're not in the really heavy supply impacted areas. And that has helped us trend really well in Denver. When we look at the underlying fundamentals in the market, -- we're not yet seeing anything beyond supply that we think is driving it. So we're seeing really good retention. We're seeing great wage growth in our applicant pool. We're not seeing any trends relative to doubling up. The cost of homes is still very, very high in Denver. Now job growth has slowed in Denver. We've all watched that kind of as we watch all the markets across the U.S. But the first half absorption of 2026 was the strongest on record for Denver. So we really do think it's the supply and demand story. And Bhairav, maybe you can just give a little bit of detail about how we're performing relative to the market on our Denver-specific stats. Bhairav Patel: Sure. I'll just add a couple of stats there. So blends for the second quarter in Denver were down 2.6%, but that was an improvement over the first quarter where the blends were down 4.8%. Concessions did tick up a little bit at about 4 weeks, but that's in line with the market. The increase kind of makes sense given the increase in expirations in the peak leasing season. And we should have a much better comp for the second half. In fact, we're already seeing it in our July blends for Denver, which are actually positive at about 1% and it's led by renewals where we'd see the first impact of concessions rolling off. And then despite the supply pressure, we feel good about our positioning in the market. If you kind of think about the overall market vacancy, that's about 10%. Our portfolio average is half of that. So overall, we feel like we're very well positioned in the market and in a great place to take advantage of a potential recovery in 2027. Anne Olson: Thank you all for joining us today, and a special thanks to our team who has done a tremendous job throughout the quarter, specifically as we've undertaken a lot of transactional activity, and we're looking forward to a great second half of the year. Have a good day. Operator: This concludes today's call. Thank you for attending. You may now disconnect.

Make better investment decisions with Simply Wall St's easy, visual tools that give you a competitive edge. Centerspace (CSR) reported second quarter 2026 results on 3 August, with lower sales than a year earlier but a much smaller net loss. The company also tightened full year earnings guidance. See our latest analysis for Centerspace. Centerspace’s recent earnings release, guidance update and progress on its share repurchase program have come against a mixed price backdrop, with the stock down 17.72% on a 90 day share price return yet still delivering an 11.21% total shareholder return over the past year. This suggests recent momentum has softened after earlier gains. If this shift in sentiment around Centerspace has you reassessing your watchlist, it could be a good moment to look at other opportunities using the 19 top founder-led companies Centerspace owns a sizable portfolio of apartment communities and has just come through a period of weaker recent returns following a stronger year. The key question now is whether the stock price properly reflects that mix. Centerspace currently screens as expensive on a P/E basis, with a ratio of 44.6x against the last close of $56.68 and an estimated fair P/E of 7.6x. That points to a rich valuation if you use earnings as the yardstick. The P/E ratio compares the share price to earnings per share. For a Residential REIT such as Centerspace, it gives a quick read on how much investors are paying for each dollar of earnings. A higher P/E can suggest the market is pricing in stronger or more resilient earnings than peers, or it can simply reflect earnings that include items that may not repeat. Here, the signals pull in different directions. Centerspace trades on a P/E of 44.6x while the Global Residential REITs industry sits at 21.6x and the estimated fair P/E is 7.6x. That implies the current multiple is more than double the industry level and well above the level the SWS fair ratio points to as a potential anchor that the market could move toward if expectations cool. Explore the SWS fair ratio for Centerspace Result: Price-to-earnings of 44.6x (OVERVALUED) However, Centerspace still faces risks if weaker annual revenue and net income trends persist or if recent share price declines affect investor confidence in its valuation. Find out about the key risks to this Centerspace narrative. The P/E points to Centerspace looking expensive, yet the SWS DCF model sends a very different signal. At a share price of $56.68 and an estimated future cash flow value of $84.22, the stock screens as trading at a discount. That gap raises a simple question: Which signal do you trust more, earnings or cash flows? Look into how the SWS DCF model arrives at its fair value.

Interested in Centerspace? Here are five stocks we like better. Centerspace is accelerating portfolio repositioning and deleveraging: The apartment REIT has sold or agreed to sell 20 communities worth approximately $530 million, exiting Rapid City and planning to exit Bismarck while increasing exposure to institutional markets. Second-quarter results were broadly in line, but guidance was lowered: Core FFO was $1.27 per share, while revised same-store NOI guidance is now flat to down 1% and the Core FFO midpoint fell to $4.63 per share after strong-performing assets were removed from the reporting pool. Balance-sheet flexibility is expected to improve materially: Net debt to EBITDA declined to 7.3 times, and post-sale debt is expected to fall below $850 million, with leverage projected in the mid-6-times range and liquidity near $450 million. Centerspace (NYSE:CSR) said its second-quarter operating results were in line with expectations as the apartment real estate investment trust continued a portfolio repositioning and deleveraging program that has included sales or pending sales of 20 communities over the past 14 months. President and CEO Anne Olson said the transactions, totaling approximately $530 million, are intended to increase the company’s exposure to institutional markets, eliminate tertiary-market exposure and reduce leverage. Centerspace has exited Rapid City, South Dakota, and expects to exit Bismarck, North Dakota, through a pending transaction expected to close in August. → SpaceX’s First Earnings Report Could Decide Whether Shorts or Bulls Have Control “Our goal is a higher quality portfolio with stronger growth potential, lower Net Debt to EBITDA, and greater financial flexibility,” Olson said. Centerspace reported second-quarter Core FFO of $1.27 per diluted share. Same-store net operating income increased 30 basis points from the second quarter of 2025, as relatively flat revenue and expense performance was supported by cost controls. → Why Rare Earth Processing Could Be the Real 2027 Opportunity The company updated its same-store reporting pool to exclude 14 communities sold or held for sale as of quarter-end. Olson said the revised pool is more heavily weighted toward Denver and Minneapolis, and is therefore not comparable with first-quarter same-store results or prior guidance. Same-store revenue was flat year over year, primarily because of concessions in Denver, while expenses declined 10 basis points. Olson said lower repair-and-maintenance costs, including turn expenses, accounted for most of the savings. Resident retention was 61.3% during the quarter. Renewal rent growth was 3.4%. New-lease rent growth was negative 60 basis points, an improvement of 190 basis points from the first quarter. Blended lease growth was 1.8%, a level that held through July. → 3 Drone Stocks That Should Soar After the Summer Slump Olson said Denver remains softer as new supply is absorbed, though the company’s July blended lease spreads in the market turned positive. Outside the Mountain West, all of Centerspace’s markets posted blended lease growth above 3% in June. Minneapolis posted blended rent growth of 3.4% and retention of 65%. Olson said the market has absorbed elevated supply and now faces a muted delivery outlook. She characterized Minneapolis performance as in line with, or slightly better than, company expectations. Senior Vice President of Investments in Capital Markets Grant Campbell detailed a series of asset sales completed during and after the quarter. On June 29, Centerspace sold Civic Lofts, a smaller Denver community, for $30 million. Campbell said the sale represented a mid-3% capitalization rate on trailing 12-month financials, including unstabilized vacancy and concessions, and a low-5% rate based on stabilized operations. On July 9, the company closed the sale of five Rapid City communities for $66 million, completing its exit from that market. Centerspace also remains under contract to sell six Bismarck communities for approximately $150 million, with closing expected in August. The Rapid City and Bismarck transactions were priced at mid-6% capitalization rates, Campbell said. The company additionally sold two newer Minneapolis communities, Red 20 and Ironwood, for $73.8 million on July 14. The 312-home sale was driven by strong pricing, portfolio-concentration management and the company’s balance-sheet strategy, according to Campbell. In total, 2026 disposition activity includes 14 communities, 1,810 apartment homes and approximately $320 million of sale proceeds. Campbell said the sales increase average rent per community by 1.4% and raise average homes per community from 201 to 222. Centerspace also repurchased $2.5 million of its shares during the quarter at an average price of $55.54 per share. Campbell said all company sales were priced inside the implied mid- to high-7% capitalization rate at which the stock was trading. Chief Financial Officer Bhairav Patel said Centerspace now expects full-year same-store NOI growth ranging from flat to down 1% year over year. At the midpoint, the company expects revenue growth of 50 basis points and expense growth of 2%. Patel said the primary reason for the revised outlook was the removal of strong-performing Bismarck and Minneapolis properties from the same-store pool. The 14 communities excluded from the revised pool collectively delivered 7.5% year-over-year NOI growth, while the revised same-store pool was down 1.3% year over year. Centerspace lowered its Core FFO midpoint guidance to $4.63 per share. Patel estimated that approximately $300 million of sales would reduce second-half NOI by about $11.5 million, partly offset by roughly $6.5 million from the use of proceeds, for a net second-half impact of about $5 million, or approximately $0.25 per share. The company expects to use sale proceeds to fully repay its line of credit and to retain about $100 million of cash, including $50 million to $60 million potentially earmarked for a special distribution needed to maintain REIT status. Patel said any such distribution would likely occur in the fourth quarter, subject to ongoing taxable-income projections. Centerspace ended the quarter with more than $240 million of liquidity and annualized net debt to EBITDA of 7.3 times, down from 8.2 times in the first quarter. The company had about $1 billion of debt outstanding, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.6% and a weighted average maturity of 6.7 years. Following post-quarter asset sales, Centerspace expects total debt to fall below $850 million. Assuming the potential special distributions, Patel said net debt to EBITDA should settle in the mid-6-times range and total liquidity should reach approximately $450 million. In Denver, second-quarter blended lease growth was negative 2.6%, improving from negative 4.8% in the first quarter. July blends were positive at about 1%, led by renewals, Patel said. While concessions increased to roughly four weeks, the company said its Denver portfolio vacancy rate is about half of the broader market’s approximately 10% level. Olson said Centerspace believes Denver’s weakness remains principally a supply-and-demand issue rather than a broader deterioration in renter demand. She pointed to strong retention, wage growth among applicants, high homeownership costs and record first-half absorption in the Denver market. Centerspace is an owner and operator of apartment communities committed to providing great homes by focusing on integrity and serving others. Founded in 1970, as of September 30, 2023, Centerspace owned interests in 71 apartment communities consisting of 12,785 apartment homes located in Colorado, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota.

Portfolio repositioning improved quality and reduced leverage, with 14 communities sold for ~$320 million in 2026, exiting tertiary markets like Rapid City and Bismarck. Same-store NOI grew 30 basis points year-over-year in Q2 2026, driven by disciplined expense management, with expenses down 10 basis points. Strong resident retention at 61.3% and renewal rate growth of 3.4%, with blended lease growth of 1.8% and steady performance into July. Minneapolis delivered strong results with 3.4% blended rent growth and 65% retention, indicating market recovery from supply pressures. Balance sheet strengthened significantly, with net debt to EBITDA down to 7.3x from 8.2x in Q1, and expected to settle in mid-6x range after dispositions. Dispositions priced inside the implied portfolio cap rate, and share buybacks of $2.5 million at an average price of $55.54 per share were executed. Same-store revenue was flat year-over-year, primarily due to concessions in the Denver market, which remains soft with new supply absorption. Full-year 2026 same-store NOI growth guidance was lowered to flat to down 1%, reflecting the reconstituted same-store pool excluding strong-performing assets. Core FFO guidance midpoint was reduced to $4.63 per share, impacted by the sale of high-performing communities like those in Bismarck and Minneapolis. Denver new lease rate growth was negative 60 basis points, though improved from Q1, and the market faces high vacancy at 10% versus portfolio average of 5%. The company expects a $0.25 per share net headwind in the second half of 2026 from dispositions, partially offset by G&A savings and organic growth. Cost of capital remains a constraint for new investments, limiting ability to scale in markets like Salt Lake City despite favorable long-term outlook. Q: Can you provide color on the approximate FFO run rate of the business after all the transactions are completed, considering the sales, deleveraging, and timing?A: Bhairav Patel (CFO) detailed that the ~$300 million in sales at a mid-6% cap rate will reduce NOI by approximately $11.5 million in the second half. This is offset by ~$6.5 million in interest savings from using proceeds to pay down debt, resulting in a net impact of roughly $5 million, or $0.25 per share, for the second half. For the full year, this headwind is annualized, but the company expects organic growth from the remaining portfolio, particularly as Denver recovers in 2027, to offset the impact and potentially hold FFO steady. Q: What drove the decision to add the ~$75 million Minneapolis properties to the disposition plan, and how will the proceeds be used?A: Graham Campbell (SVP of Investments) explained the decision was driven by strong asset pricing received during the process and a desire to manage portfolio concentrations as the company exits non-institutional secondary markets. Bhairav Patel (CFO) added that the proceeds will be used to pay down debt, fund a portion of the expected special distribution in Q4, and a small amount will be held as cash on hand to potentially retire secured mortgages early next year. Q: What are you seeing in July regarding blended lease spreads, and is the improvement driven by new lease pricing, renewals, or reduced concessions?A: Anne Olson (CEO) stated that blended rate growth held firm at 1.8% in July, with strength primarily on the renewal side, which is expected to come in around mid-3% again. Bhairav Patel (CFO) added that new lease trade-outs may fluctuate due to the peak leasing season, but noted that Denver has a favorable comparison in the second half of the year as concessions began rolling off, which could positively impact new lease trade-outs. Q: Is Minneapolis performing better than expected, and has your outlook for the market changed?A: Anne Olson (CEO) stated that Minneapolis is performing in line with, or slightly better than, expectations, with strong new lease rents and great retention. She noted the market is now about a year past its supply inflection point, and with a muted supply pipeline, the company expects continued good results from Minneapolis. Q: How is your Denver portfolio performing versus the MSA, and is the revenue decline still mostly a supply issue?A: Anne Olson (CEO) noted the portfolio is well-positioned along the I-25 corridor, avoiding the heaviest supply-impacted areas. Bhairav Patel (CFO) added that Denver blends were down 2.6% in Q2, an improvement from -4.8% in Q1, and July blends turned positive at ~1%. While market vacancy is ~10%, the portfolio's vacancy is half that, and with record absorption in the first half of 2026, the company views the softness as a supply/demand issue and is well-positioned for a potential 2027 recovery. Q: What is the impact of the asset sales on same-store revenue guidance, and would you have maintained the guide without selling the stronger-performing assets?A: Bhairav Patel (CFO) confirmed that the recomposition of the same-store pool is the main contributor to the guidance change. While the new same-store pool's NOI is down 1.3% year-over-year, the 14 excluded communities were collectively up 7.5%, with Bismarck and Minneapolis being top performers. The majority of the change in same-store guidance is therefore due to the dispositions. Q: In what world could there be FFO growth next year, given the annualized headwind from dispositions?A: Bhairav Patel (CFO) highlighted that the company expects ~$2 million (or $0.10 per share) in annualized G&A savings from the realignment. Combined with expected organic NOI growth, particularly from a Denver recovery in 2027 and continued strength in other markets, the company believes it can at least hold FFO steady going forward. Q: Are there any other changes coming out of the strategic review, or is the disposition activity complete?A: Graham Campbell (SVP) confirmed that the process revealed strong pricing in secondary markets and for the Minneapolis assets. He stated that the company is not contemplating any additional sales in 2026, indicating the current disposition plan is complete for the year. Q: What are your thoughts on the Salt Lake City market and building scale there on a go-forward basis?A: Anne Olson (CEO) explained that while the company remains constructive on Salt Lake City, the current cost of capital is not accretive for new investments. Graham Campbell (SVP) added that the existing investment is hitting its underwriting marks, and the company is evaluating the best capital allocation decisions. They would look for discrete, match-funded transactions to scale the market until the cost of capital aligns. Q: Can you elaborate on the decision to sell the two Minneapolis assets and the strong pricing received?A: Graham Campbell (SVP) reiterated that the decision was driven by strong pricing received during the process and the need to manage portfolio concentrations. The sale of Red 20 and Ironwood for $73.8 million, at a mid-6% cap rate, reflects the strength of Minneapolis fundamentals and allows the company to further advance its balance sheet strategy.

Our analysts just identified a stock with the potential to be the next Nvidia. Tell us how you invest and we'll show you why it's our #1 pick. Tap here. Management is executing a deliberate strategy to exit tertiary markets like St. Cloud, Rapid City, and Bismarck to increase exposure to higher-growth institutional markets. The disposition of 20 communities for approximately $530 million over 14 months is intended to improve portfolio quality, reduce leverage, and enhance financial flexibility. Same-store revenue was flat year-over-year, primarily attributed to supply-driven concessions in the Denver market, which offset strength in North Dakota and Minnesota. Disciplined expense management, specifically in repairs, maintenance, and turnover costs, allowed for positive NOI growth despite revenue headwinds. Strong retention rates of 61.3% and renewal rent growth of 3.4% indicate stable demand in core markets where new supply has already been absorbed. The decision to sell two newer Minneapolis assets was driven by opportunistic pricing and a desire to manage portfolio concentration while advancing balance sheet goals. Full-year Core FFO guidance was lowered to a $4.63 midpoint to reflect the loss of income from high-performing assets sold during the portfolio reconstitution. Management expects Denver to remain soft through 2026 as supply is absorbed, with a projected recovery and diminished deliveries anticipated in 2027. A special distribution of $50 million to $60 million is earmarked for the fourth quarter to maintain REIT status following significant taxable gains from property sales. The company anticipates an annualized G&A run rate reduction of approximately $2 million as overhead is realigned with the smaller, more efficient portfolio footprint. Future capital allocation will prioritize maintaining a mid-6x net debt to EBITDA range while selectively evaluating share repurchases versus debt retirement. Net debt to EBITDA improved significantly from 8.2x in Q1 to 7.3x in Q2, with a target to reach the mid-6x range following the close of pending sales. The company repurchased $2.5 million in shares at an average price of $55.54, citing a valuation disconnect between the stock price and private market asset values. Total liquidity is expected to reach approximately $450 million post-dispositions, which management characterizes as the strongest balance sheet position in the company's history. The sale of Civic Lofts in Denver at a mid-3% trailing cap rate reflects the current impact of non-stabilized vacancy and concessions in urban submarkets. One stock.

Management noted that strong pricing and the need to manage geographic concentration drove the decision to sell the Red 20 and Ironwood assets. Proceeds are prioritized for debt repayment and a required special distribution, with a small portion held for retiring secured mortgages in early 2027. The net impact of the $300 million in sales is approximately $0.25 per share for the second half of 2026. Management believes FFO can remain steady or grow in 2027 through a combination of Denver's recovery, organic growth in other markets, and $2 million in annualized G&A savings. While Denver blends were down 2.6% in Q2, July blends turned positive at 1% as the company began lapping the start of the 2025 concession cycle. Management emphasized that their Denver portfolio vacancy is roughly half the market average of 10%, suggesting superior asset positioning despite macro supply headwinds. While the company remains constructive on Salt Lake City, current cost of capital makes new acquisitions dilutive. Future scaling in that market will likely depend on match-funding through asset sales or an improvement in the company's cost of capital.

Hope Bancorp (HOPE) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.27 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.26 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.19 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items. This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +3.85%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times. Hope Bancorp, which belongs to the Zacks Banks - West industry, posted revenues of $147.82 million for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.69%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $133.43 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Hope Bancorp shares have added about 22.7% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 8.3%. While Hope Bancorp has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions. Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Hope Bancorp was unfavorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to underperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.30 on $156.6 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $1.13 on $624.3 million in revenues for the current fiscal year. Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well.
