Forward Outlook and Key Factors to Monitor

Prologis' elevated 2026 guidance signals confidence in sustained demand for logistics and data centers. Core FFO midpoint of $6.15 implies steady growth, driven by higher occupancy (95.0%-95.75%) and same-store NOI acceleration (cash 6.25%-7.0%). Investors should track execution on $4.5-$5.5 billion development starts, with 40% in high-growth data centers—$1.3 billion already underway in Q1, backed by 1.3 gigawatts under LOI.

New ventures with GIC and La Caisse enhance strategic capital, targeting $660-$680 million revenue (excluding promotes). Net effective rent change is expected near 40% annually, despite Q1's 32% from West Coast renewals; lease mark-to-market at 17% offers $750 million embedded upside as market rents tick higher—the first increase in 2.5 years.

Risks include supply-demand balance, with U.S. vacancy potentially easing as completions slow, and bad debt normalization (Q1 unusually low). Geopolitical tensions have not yet impacted customer plans. Watch Q2 earnings (est. July 15) for leasing momentum, same-store trends, and data center progress amid e-commerce and AI-driven demand.
