AvalonBay Communities Inc Analyst Notes
On April 23, 2014, AvalonBay Communities Inc (AvalonBay) reported its Q1 2014 operating results. Net income reached $141.7 million or $1.09 per diluted share compared to $75.4 million or $0.63 per diluted share in Q1 2013. According to the Company, the robust results were attributed to the increase in Company's Net Operating Income (NOI) from newly developed and acquired communities, including those acquired as part of the Archstone acquisition, coupled with a decrease in expensed acquisition costs related to the Archstone acquisition. Funds from Operations attributable to common shareholders (FFO) reached $212.8 million compared with $93.5 million in Q1 2013. Tim Naughton, Chairman and CEO, said, "Looking ahead, we expect NOI from apartment homes being delivered for initial occupancy to be the primary driver of outsized FFO growth throughout the balance of the year." For Q2 2014, the Company expects EPS in the range of $1.46 to $1.50. The full analyst notes on AvalonBay are available to download free of charge at:
