The Company invests in properties located in metropolitan areas in the Southern and Western United States. City Office REIT, Inc. is based in Vancouver, Canada. " (10/15/2019)
- 2. Boenning Scattergood analysts commented, "We remain positive about the prospect of CIO shares to outperform those of peers, and we believe the dividend is stable as it is very nearly covered by AFFO and we think the BOD is committed to the current dividend. Importantly, we observe that CIO has amassed a portfolio of over 5.7 million square feet of Class A office space in markets that are of interest to larger players. The seven cities where CIO owns properties have had approximately 7 million square feet of positive absorption of office space and new construction is limited. These fundamentals give us confidence that CIO’s investment strategy will result in value creation as evidenced by NAV growth. We maintain our Outperform rating and our $14.50 price target, which is based on a discount to estimated forward NAV of $15.25." (5/6/2019)
