BSR REIT Provides Second Quarter 2025 Operational Update

Cision Canada03-06-2025

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. and TORONTO, June 3, 2025 /CNW/ - BSR Real Estate Investment Trust ("BSR" and "the REIT") (TSX: HOM.U) (TSX: HOM.UN) has provided a leasing update in advance of its participation in Nareit's REITweek 2025 Investor Conference. BSR has also published an updated investor presentation to its website.
As of May 31, 2025, BSR's Same Community (defined below) weighted average occupancy was 95.7%. Excluding short term leases, during Q2 2025 to-date, Same Community rental rates for new leases and renewals decreased 4.5% and increased 1.7%, respectively, for a blended decrease of 0.9%. Excluding short term leases, for May 2025 Same Community rental rates for new leases and renewals decreased 3.7% and increased 2.1%, respectively, for a blended decrease of 0.3%. This performance is consistent with the REIT's stated view that the unprecedented levels of new supply are being effectively absorbed, which will lead to continued improvement in leasing spreads.
The following table highlights key information about the properties as of May 31, 2025, organized by MSA for Same Community, which excludes recent property acquisitions and dispositions as well as any non-stabilized properties. The rental growth rates shown for April and May 2025 are calculated as the average percentage change over the prior lease for new or renewed leases during the period, excluding short term leases.
"Same Community" results are used by management to evaluate performances of investment properties owned by the REIT during comparative periods. Same Community results herein exclude the impact of Venue Craig Ranch, Forayna Vintage Park and Botanic Luxury which were acquired in 2025 and further exclude Aura 35Fifty which completed development in December 2024 and remains non-stabilized during the current period due to lease-up. Same Community results also exclude the impact of Bluff Creek, Cielo I, Cielo II, Retreat at Wolf Ranch, Auberry at Twin Creeks, Satori Frisco, Vale Frisco, Aura Benbrook, Lakeway Castle Hills and Wimberly which were disposed in 2025.

3 No-Brainer Consumer Goods Dividend Stocks to Buy Right Now

I like consumer goods stocks, particularly those with a focus on providing me access to companies that support the everyday purchases of everyday people. A lot of companies fall into this broad grouping, but three of my top picks right now are Realty Income (NYSE: O), which needs a bit of explaining, Hormel Foods (NYSE: HRL), and Hershey (NYSE: HSY). Here's a quick look at this trio of dividend stocks offering yields of up to 5.6%. What does Realty Income do? When you buy things like groceries, clothing, or food, you probably go to a physical store a lot of the time. These types of retailers provide a direct way to get exposure to consumers. However, a big variable is introduced, as retailers across the spectrum go in and out of favor with consumers. It is hard to determine which retailer or restaurant will be the winner at any given time. Which is why real estate investment trust (REIT) Realty Income is so attractive to me. Realty Income owns single-tenant net lease properties, which means the tenant is responsible for most property-level operating costs. Roughly 75% of the rents from its over 15,600 properties are tied to the retail sector. The rest comes from industrial assets and unique one-offs, like casinos. If you own Realty Income, you don't have to worry about which retail concept wins because the REIT has exposure to so many different concepts (it has nearly 1,600 different tenants). If there's a problem with a tenant, which happens from time to time, Realty Income can sell the property or lease it to a new retailer. All in, Realty Income offers relatively low-risk exposure to the consumer goods niche. The proof of this is that it has increased its dividend annually for 30 consecutive years. And if you buy today, you get a very attractive 5.6% dividend yield. Hormel and Hershey are struggling Hormel and Hershey are far more direct plays on the consumer side, with both being food manufacturers. Hormel owns a wide selection of packaged food brands with an emphasis on protein. Hershey owns iconic confection brands and a small portfolio of salty snack brands. They both have solid dividend histories, with Hershey's dividend heading steadily higher over time, though not on an annual basis, and Hormel sitting among the highly elite group of companies known as Dividend Kings (50-plus consecutive annual dividend hikes). Both Hormel and Hershey are interesting right now because they are each offering historically high dividend yields. Hormel's yield is around 3.8% today, and Hershey's is roughly 3.2%. To be fair, each company is facing headwinds today, so it takes a contrarian bent to step aboard. Hormel is having trouble pushing through price increases as it faces rising costs and challenges due to avian flu and slow growth in China. Hershey is dealing with a massive increase in the price of cocoa, a key ingredient in chocolate. But both companies are financially strong and have the leeway to make choices that are in the best long-term interest of their investors. There's a unique feature that Hormel and Hershey share that increases the likelihood of long-term success, helping to make them no-brainer buys despite the adversity they are facing. Both companies have material nonprofit shareholders that the companies' founders created. The Hormel Foundation and The Hershey Trust have a massive say in how each of these companies operates. Basically, these two philanthropic organizations use the dividends they collect to support their charitable giving. The Hershey Trust has a vested interest in Hershey, the company, making decisions that will keep the dividend growing over time. The Hormel Foundation, likewise, has a vested interest in ensuring that Hormel, the company, makes good business decisions that sustain the dividend growth. The large ownership stakes of both of these charity organizations mean that the companies can do what's in the long-term interests of shareholders, rather than bowing to the whims of Wall Street, which sometimes means making short-term choices that hurt a company's long-term prospects. You can find higher yields in the consumer staples sector, but Hershey and Hormel stand out for their ability to think long term. They also offer attractive yields and recovery potential as they work through their current business issues. And they really become attractive if you pair them with a boring high-yield stalwart like Realty Income. Think about more than just yield There are a lot of different consumer goods stocks you can buy. Finding ones with attractive yields and strong underlying stories is the key. Realty Income is a slow and steady tortoise that can be a foundational dividend investment. It gives you the leeway to invest in more aggressive options, such as Hormel and Hershey, two iconic consumer staples companies facing headwinds that are likely to be temporary.
