What are Wall Street analysts saying about CubeSmart stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about CubeSmart stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "CubeSmart is a self-administered and self-managed real estate company focused on the ownership, operation, acquisition and development of self storage facilities in the United States. Its self storage facilities are designed to offer storage space for residential and commercial customers. CubeSmart, formally known as U-Store-It Trust, is based in Wayne, Pennsylvania. " (3/6/2018)
- 2. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, "4Q Beat. Core FFO/sh. at $0.41 beat Cantor/FactSet consensus estimate by $0.01. 4Q SS Revenue growth at 4.0% was in line with 4.1% in 3Q. Rents increased 4.0% (-10bps seq.), and average occupancy was flat at 92.3%. Expenses were in check at 0.1% (vs. 4.2% in 3Q), with real estate taxes down 4.2%. As a result, SSNOI growth increased 5.4% vs. 4.1% in 3Q. Gross margin improved 100bps to 73.2%. Of the top 10 markets, those with the highest declines in sequential SS rev. growth include Phoenix (-250bps to 3.1%), Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario (-160ps to 9.3%), and New York (-40bps to 3.0%); markets that showed improvement include Tucson (+70bps to 7.2%), Dallas (+50bps to 2.5%) and Washington DC (+40bps to 3.3%)." (2/15/2018)
- 3. FBR & Co analysts commented, "While CUBE is no stranger to beat and raise quarters, this quarter is especially sweet given the Public Storage print the night before paired with market uncertainty. We think the print highlights CUBE’s revenue management competency and portfolio positioning versus the sector. Given decelerating asking rate and contract rent growth, as well as tougher occupancy and promotional comps, we initially thought hitting the implied 2H17 revenue guidance (+3.75%) may have been a challenge. However, the portfolio shined this quarter with +4.1% revenue growth, even coming off of a tough 3Q16 comp. Further, the company’s largest (and most focused upon) market, New York City, contributed about 30bps to this growth, in a surprise re- acceleration. We continue to believe that CUBE is the name to own in the storage sector. We are adjusting our FFO as adjusted estimates and NAV upwards." (10/27/2017)
