KeyBanc analyst Craig Mailman upgraded Brandywine Realty to Sector Weight citing improved management discipline on development, a higher quality portfolio following re-positioning efforts, and an improved balance sheet.

Reports Q1 revenue $126.48M, consensus $126.12M. "During the first quarter, we made excellent progress on our 2024 business plan highlighted by achieving 98% of our speculative revenue target based on the midpoint of our guidance," stated Jerry Sweeney, President and Chief Executive Officer of Brandywine Realty Trust. "We continue to experience positive mark-to-market rental rate increases of 16.9% and 3.3% on an accrual and cash basis as well. In early April, we further strengthened our balance sheet and liquidity position by issuing a $400 million five-year unsecured bond at 8.875%. The bond proceeds are being used to retire the $335 million outstanding balance on our unsecured bond maturing in October 2024 and the outstanding balance on our line of credit. Once these bonds are retired, we have no bond maturities until November 2027 and no outstanding balance on our $600 million line of credit. With the bond issuance occurring earlier than anticipated in our 2024 business plan, we are narrowing our FFO range from $0.90 to $1.00 per share to $0.90 to $0.97 per share."
