Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Q2 2026
Earnings Call Date:Aug 04, 2026|
% Change Since:
|
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call emphasized strong operational momentum: record sales per square foot, high leased occupancy, sustained leasing velocity (1.3M sf signed in Q2), a sizable SNO pipeline, and meaningful balance sheet progress (liquidity, equity raises and leverage reduction). Management expects accelerating NOI growth in 2027–2028 and a robust acquisition pipeline that could be accretive. Key risks discussed include remaining elevated leverage (7.3x), a $76M loan in default, the need to complete additional dispositions this year to hit targets, and execution/timing risk converting signed tenants into opened stores and rent. Overall, positive operational and strategic execution materially outweigh near‑term financial and execution challenges, supporting a constructive outlook while acknowledging remaining execution and market risks.
Company Guidance
Macerich guided that go‑forward portfolio NOI should increase at least 3% in 2026 (Q2 go‑forward NOI +3.8%; YTD +2.5%) with meaningful acceleration in 2027–28 (Path Forward 3.0 implies a 3‑year NOI CAGR midpoint of 6.5% for ’26–’28, which implies north of ~8% in ’27–’28); they have high confidence in a ~$140M SNO opportunity (SNO pipeline $124M) with estimated annual contributions of ~$30M in 2026 (back‑end weighted), $40–45M in 2027 and $45–50M in 2028. Q2 FFO as‑adjusted was ~$100M or $0.35 per diluted share; leasing activity included 1.3M sq ft signed (645k new) in Q2, ~350k sq ft opened, a leasing speedometer at 88% (vs. 85% midyear target), store openings completion at 57% (ahead of 50% at NAREIT and expected >60% by year‑end), ~1,000 new‑deal program with ~170 deals remaining (≈2/3 in LOI), portfolio sales $919/sq ft ($954 go‑forward), leased occupancy 94% (95.5% go‑forward) and physical occupancy ~91%. On the balance sheet, liquidity is ≈$1.2B (≈$900M revolver), May equity net proceeds ≈$450M, unsettled forward equity ≈$372M available for acquisitions, net debt/adjusted EBITDA was 7.3x (below 7x inclusive of forwards) with a target around 6x, ~$1.3B of dispositions closed (~2/3 of target) with $300–400M more expected to reach ≈$1.7B, and acquisition opportunities underwriting to ~9–11% stabilized yields (deploying $372M of equity at 9–11% would add roughly $0.02–$0.04 of FFO and lower leverage ~25–30 bps).
FFO and Quarterly Results
FFO as adjusted of ~$100 million, or $0.35 per diluted share for Q2 2026; go-forward portfolio NOI grew 3.8% year-over-year in Q2 and 2.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Record Portfolio Sales
Company-record portfolio sales of $919 per square foot for the full portfolio and $954 per square foot for the go-forward portfolio in Q2 2026, underscoring strong sales productivity in elevated assets.
High Occupancy in Core Assets
Leased occupancy of 94% for the overall portfolio and 95.5% for the go-forward portfolio at quarter end; physical occupancy reported at 91% for the go-forward portfolio.
Leasing Momentum and Progress on 5‑Year Plan
Signed 1.3 million square feet of new and renewal leases in Q2 (645k sf new), opened ~350k sf of new stores in the quarter; leasing speedometer at 88% completion (above 85% midyear target) with only ~170 of 1,000 targeted deals remaining (two‑thirds in LOI).
Store Opening Conversion Progress
Introduced 'store openings completion' metric: advanced from 50% at NAREIT to 57% currently, targeting >60% by year-end to accelerate tenants from LOI to open and paying rent.
SNO Pipeline and Near‑Term NOI Contribution
Signed-not-open (SNO) pipeline reached $124 million of an expected $140 million opportunity; estimated annual SNO contribution: ~$30M in 2026 (back-end weighted), $40M–$45M in 2027 and $45M–$50M in 2028.
Balance Sheet Liquidity and Capital Raises
Approximately $1.2 billion in liquidity (including $900M RCF capacity) plus ~$372M of unsettled forward equity proceeds available to fund acquisitions; net proceeds of approximately $450M from a May equity offering.
Leverage Improvements
Net debt to adjusted EBITDA decreased to 7.3x at Q2 end (almost 0.5x lower sequentially and >1.5x lower versus outset of Path Forward plan); inclusive of forward equity proceeds, leverage is reported below 7x with a target to reduce to ~6x.
Disposition Progress
Completed approximately $1.3 billion in total dispositions to date (about two‑thirds of initial disposition target); company expects to sell or give back an additional $300M–$400M by year-end to reach roughly $1.7B total.
Acquisitions Pipeline and Expected Accretion
Robust on- and off-market acquisition pipeline; underwriting stabilized yields of ~9%–11%. Management indicated deploying the ~$372M forward equity at these yields could generate ~$0.02–$0.04 of incremental FFO and reduce leverage by ~25–30 bps.
Strong Asset-Level Examples Driving Traffic
Tysons Corner West wing improvements driving 10% YTD traffic increase; Zara Tysons flagship (45k sf) opened strongly (ranked #1 in U.S. opening weekend); high-performing centers showing low‑teens traffic gains and ~9% NOI uplift year-to-date in select late-stage transformed assets vs. go-forward avg.
