CUZ beats Q1 FFO estimates as leasing stays strong, revenues rise, and 2026 guidance widens with buybacks and debt financing gains.

BXP, Inc. (BXP) Q1 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

BXP beats Q1 FFO estimates and boosts its 2026 outlook as leasing tops 1.1M sq ft and occupancy rises, signaling steady demand despite a slight yearly dip in earnings.

Occupancy is improving, with a 3% uplift expected in 2024 from leased-to-occupied pipeline, but major lease maturities loom post-2027.
