VICI Properties (ISIN US9256521090) carried a 7.82 percent dividend yield on October 29, 2026, according to Investing.com. In its October 28 results release, VICI Properties raised full-year 2026 AFFO guidance from USD 2.45-2.47 per diluted share to USD 2.47-2.48.

What changed in the quarter

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2026 reached USD 1.1 billion, up 5.8 percent from the year-earlier quarter. AFFO attributable to common stockholders rose 7.5 percent to USD 685.2 million, while AFFO per share increased 4.3 percent to USD 0.62.

GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders fell 55.1 percent to USD 342.5 million. The release attributed the decline to a USD 478.2 million aggregate change in the allowance for credit losses, separating the reported profit pressure from the increase in AFFO.

Three dates define the update

On September 28, 2026, VICI announced a new Alberta lease with an initial annual base rent of CAD 10.7 million. On October 27, 2026, its board authorized a USD 2.0 billion share repurchase program. On October 28, 2026, the company reported third-quarter results and disclosed USD 270.3 million in cash and cash equivalents.

How much does the lease add?

The Highfield master lease will begin with a 20-year term and four five-year renewal options. Closing is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026 or the first quarter of 2027, subject to customary conditions and regulatory approvals. VICI said aggregate rent collected will not change because the Alberta operating transfer is paired with an amendment to the existing Century master lease.

Which dates come next?

VICI Properties scheduled its earnings call for October 29, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. ET. The company also completed a USD 1.75 billion senior-notes offering in August, using proceeds to refinance 2026 maturities. That financing leaves the balance sheet positioned for additional investment while the guidance increase gives the market a clearer operating benchmark.
