Highwoods Properties: Occupancy Rates Rising, Dampening Dividend Yield Appeal

Highwoods Properties' Sunbelt office focus faces headwinds as occupancy rates decline and core markets like Raleigh and Atlanta see rising vacancies. Despite a 7% dividend yield and strong near-term coverage, falling occupancy, FFO, and free cash flow raise concerns for long-term investors. Debt maturities are manageable through 2025, but refinancing risk grows in 2027-2028 amid higher rates and possible continued occupancy losses.

U.S. equity markets fell sharply this week, while benchmark interest rates retreated to three-month lows, after revised employment data showed that job growth was far weaker than initially reported. The BLS payrolls report showed softer-than-expected hiring in July and the steepest two-month downward revisions to jobs growth since 2020, raising concern that the Fed may be "behind the curve." The downward revisions came days after Fed Chair Powell used it as the primary evidence for "solid" labor markets, which justified the FOMC's decision to keep rates in "restrictive" territory.
