Federal Realty delivered a blowout Q1 with FFO of $1.88/share, up 10.6% and $0.06 above the guidance midpoint, driven by better occupancy, expense savings from 2025 acquisitions, and timing pull-forwards. Record Q1 leasing of 649,000 comparable sq ft at 13% cash rollover reinforced the strong demand narrative. Management raised FY2026 Core FFO guidance by $0.03-$0.04 to $7.46-$7.55, citing broad-based outperformance across comparable POI, acquisitions, and redevelopment. The K-shaped economy theme featured prominently, with management emphasizing that FRT's affluent demographics ($167K average household income, $11B purchasing power per center) provide meaningful cushion in a selective consumer environment.
