Analyst projections of the future price of Cousins Properties stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Cousins leased 1.86 million square feet in the first half of 2026, lifting its portfolio to 92.8% leased, the highest level since early 2020. This puts more space on a path to generate rent as leases commence. (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission)
Cash rents on second-generation leases rose 12.2% year to date, while cash same-property NOI increased 5.6%. Those gains show Cousins is raising income from existing buildings, not relying only on acquisitions to grow. (StockTitan)
Cousins reported $1.1 billion of liquidity and net debt of 5.6 times EBITDA, which it described as the lowest leverage among office peers. That financial capacity, alongside a 5.1 million-square-foot development land bank, gives it options to invest as demand improves. (StockTitan)
Although 92.8% of the portfolio was leased, weighted-average occupancy was only 89.4%, so some signed leases had yet to start producing rent. Management also warned that large Charlotte expiries could cause occupancy to dip before later commencements. (ROIC AI)
A $36.6 million impairment on One Eleven Congress in the first half shows that office asset values can be marked down materially. That write-down weighed on reported earnings even as FFO held up better. (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission)
Austin and Atlanta each account for about 32% of Cousins’ portfolio, leaving roughly two-thirds of its exposure tied to just two markets. A local slowdown in either city could therefore have an outsized effect on leasing and property income. (StockTitan)
