Piedmont Realty Trust posts strong Q2 2026 results, boosting turnaround and dividend hopes.

Piedmont Realty Trust is accelerating its turnaround with strong Q2 2026 results, showing a 270 basis point increase in economic lease percentage year-over-year and a 14.1% rise in rental rate roll-ups. With 90% of its portfolio renovated and rents still significantly below new construction levels, the company expects $39 million in new annualized cash rents to enhance its funds from operations (FFO). Trading at a forward price-to-FFO ratio of 5.7x, Piedmont is positioned for multiple expansion and anticipates reinstating its dividend in 2027, supporting a $15 price target for investors.
