NETSTREIT stock is anchored by Q2 2026 adjusted funds from operations of USD 0.35 per diluted share, up 6.10 percent from USD 0.33 a year earlier. In its second-quarter report, NETSTREIT also raised its full-year AFFO guidance range to USD 1.37-1.39 per share.

Guidance rises with portfolio growth

The Q2 2026 report shows total revenue of USD 61.3 million, compared with USD 48.3 million in Q2 2025. GAAP net income reached USD 6.3 million, versus USD 3.3 million a year earlier, while diluted earnings per share increased to USD 0.06 from USD 0.04.

NETSTREIT also increased its 2026 net investment activity guidance to USD 700.0 million-800.0 million from USD 550.0 million-650.0 million. The change connects the higher AFFO outlook to continued property acquisition activity rather than to a one-time earnings effect.

Occupancy remains fully leased

As of June 30, 2026, the portfolio contained 859 investments across 46 states, with 156 tenants and 100.00 percent occupancy. Annualized base rent was USD 231.4 million, and the weighted average lease term was 10.00 years.

The balance sheet carried USD 1.1 billion of total liquidity on June 30, 2026, including cash, revolver capacity and unsettled forward equity. Pro forma adjusted net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDAre was 3.1 times, compared with net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDAre of 6.5 times.

Analyst target moves lower

MarketBeat reported on September 24, 2026, that Scotiabank lowered its NETSTREIT price target from USD 22.00 to USD 20.00 while maintaining a Sector Outperform rating. The lower target contrasts with the company guidance increase and keeps valuation sensitivity tied to financing costs, equity issuance and acquisition execution.
