Terreno Realty
Corporation (TRNO), a real estate investment trust (REIT),
has recently provided an update of its second quarter 2011
investment activities that primarily delves on its acqusition
spree. The continuous acquisition binge is part of the long-term
strategy of the company to own functional and flexible buildings in
infill locations that can be modified to accommodate single and
multiple tenants at discounts to replacement cost.
Terreno Realty acquired 5 industrial
properties spanning approximately 400,000 square feet for an
aggregate purchase price of $55.9 million, including the assumption
of a mortgage loan of approximately $14.8 million with a fixed
annual interest rate of 5.5%. Out of these, two properties are
located in New Jersey, while the remaining three are located in
Florida, California, and Maryland.
Subsequent to the quarter-end,
Terreno Realty acquired an industrial property in California
totaling 73,000 square feet for approximately $12.4 million,
including the assumption of a mortgage loan of $6.8 million with a
fixed annual interest rate of 5.5%. The company further has two
properties (one each in Miami and New Jersey, spanning 190,500
square feet) under contract to purchase for an aggregate sum of
$14.8 million.
San-Francisco-based Terreno Realty
owns and operates industrial real estate properties primarily in
six major coastal markets of the U.S. These include the high
barriers-to-entry markets of Los Angeles, Northern New Jersey/New
York City, San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle, Miami and Washington
D.C./Baltimore.
Each of the locations in which
Terreno Realty has a significant presence is characterized by a
well-established transportation network – seaports, airports,
highways and railways that are essential for the swift distribution
of goods. In addition, available land in these markets is scarce,
resulting in steep barriers for the development of new and
competing properties. Consequently, the company has resisted from
pursuing ground-up development or land investments over the years
and instead focused on acquiring high-quality assets.
We have a ‘Neutral’ rating on
Terreno Realty, which presently has a Zacks #4 Rank translating
into a short-term ‘Sell’ rating and indicates that the stock is
expected to perform well below the overall U.S.equity market for
the next 1–3 months. We also have a ‘Neutral’ recommendation and a
Zacks #3 Rank (short-term ‘Hold’) for Winthrop Realty
Trust (FUR), one of the peers of Terreno Realty.
