Postal Realty Trust: Robust Earnings Amid Divergent Investor Moves

Postal Realty Trust US73757R1023

Shares of Postal Realty Trust, a real estate investment trust specializing in properties leased to the United States Postal Service, are being supported by a strong quarterly performance and an upgraded annual outlook. However, recent trading activity from major institutional players reveals a more complex picture, setting the stage for upcoming investor events.

Management has raised its full-year forecast following impressive third-quarter 2025 results. The adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) guidance was increased by $0.06, now projected to be between $1.30 and $1.32 per diluted share. This upgrade was supported by a significant 24% year-over-year revenue increase. Net income available to common shareholders saw a dramatic rise of approximately 256%, reaching $3.81 million.

• The quarterly dividend was also lifted by 1.0% to $0.2425 per Class A share.
• For the quarter, AFFO totaled $10.8 million, or $0.33 per diluted share.

Institutional Activity Paints a Mixed Picture

An analysis of institutional holdings for Q3 2025 shows notable divergence in strategy among major funds. While some institutions made substantial new investments, one significantly reduced its stake.

• A massive 384.8% increase, representing 197,361 shares, was reported by JPMORGAN CHASE & CO..
• BLACKROCK, INC. expanded its position by 18.9%, adding 333,067 shares.
• In contrast, Millennium Management LLC reduced its holdings by 52.8%, selling 236,252 shares.

This activity follows moves in the prior quarter, which saw Prudential Financial Inc. initiate a new position and Gilman Hill Asset Management LLC make a modest increase to its holdings.

Valuation and Forthcoming Investor Engagement

Trading at $15.11 as of Friday, December 5, the stock carries a consensus analyst rating of "Moderate Buy" with an average price target of $17.38. The annualized dividend of $0.97 provides a current yield of 6.4%.

The company continues its schedule of investor outreach. Following a recent presentation at the NobleCon21 conference, Postal Realty Trust's management is scheduled to host investor meetings at Nareit's REITworld: 2025 Annual Conference in Dallas on December 9 and 10.
