Company Overview

Peakstone Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: PKST) is a publicly traded real estate investment trust focused on the acquisition, ownership and operation of necessity-based retail and distribution properties. The company specializes in grocery-anchored shopping centers, community and neighborhood retail assets, and a growing portfolio of cold storage and distribution facilities. Peakstone generates rental income under long-term leases with a mix of national grocers, drugstore chains and logistics tenants.

Peakstone’s retail portfolio is anchored by investment-grade tenants in densely populated trade areas, providing tenants with essential goods and services and supporting resilient occupancy and cash flow.

The company follows a disciplined acquisition strategy, seeking assets that meet defined underwriting criteria for income stability, tenant credit quality and value-add potential. This approach is designed to support rent growth and mitigate downside risk in varying economic environments.

Since its initial public listing in 2021, Peakstone has grown its portfolio through internal deal sourcing and co-investment relationships. The leadership team combines decades of real estate investment, development and operational expertise, enabling the company to execute on strategic growth opportunities. Peakstone’s management remains focused on delivering sustainable cash distributions and pursuing total return for shareholders through prudent capital allocation and portfolio diversification.
