The company raised its full-year 2026 AFFO guidance midpoint to $4.10–$4.12 per share (prior: $4.08–$4.12) and increased the quarterly dividend by 5.1% to $0.82. Key transactions included completing the $225M Aurora development commitment for PENN Entertainment at 7.75% cap rate (June 24), settling a forward sale agreement for 7.59M shares yielding $351.0M net proceeds (June 1), and extending the Rockford Casino loan maturity to December 31, 2029 with a $16.0M principal repayment. The company anticipates $400–$450M in additional development funding in H2 2026, bringing total 2026 development spend to $750–$800M. Leverage stood at 4.8x (below the 5.0–5.5x target range) as of June 30, 2026.
Why this rating
Strong operational growth and raised guidance are positive, but development funding and incremental share dilution are moderate relative to the ~$12.7B market cap. Routine for a REIT.
