John Moragne, CEO of Broadstone Net Lease, discussed the company’s 2025 goals and strategy during an interview at Nareit’s REITweek: 2025 Investor Conference in June. He stated that the REIT is on track to meet its midpoint guidance of 3% growth in adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) per share, adding that the company hopes to exceed that target. Moragne also highlighted a goal of $500 million in new build-to-suit commitments for the year, noting that $310 million had been secured as of the interview, with plans to add approximately $400 million more by year-end. Moragne described the company’s recent portfolio repositioning, including the sale of clinical healthcare assets in the prior year, which he said allowed Broadstone to focus on core growth areas such as in-place portfolio growth, revenue-generating capital expenditures with existing tenants, and development build-to-suit projects. He characterized the build-to-suit pipeline as having a weighted average initial yield of about 7.5%, straight-line yields near 9%, and a weighted average lease term of roughly 13 years, which he said offers a better investment profile compared to regular way deals. Looking ahead, Moragne expressed a goal of delivering consistent single-digit AFFO per share growth in 2026 and beyond.
