Q1 2026 earnings summary
15 May, 2026Executive summary
Q1 2026 revenues rose 56% year-over-year to $8.7 million, driven by new campus operations, higher occupancy, and expanded asset base, with constructed assets surpassing $352 million, a $75 million increase year-over-year.
OPF Phase 2 campus delivered at $39.2 million cost, 68% leased at premium rates above underwriting, with cost per square foot trending lower.
Leasing momentum continued, with re-leasing step-ups averaging 23% over prior leases and economic occupancy at stabilized campuses exceeding 100%.
Net loss narrowed to $9.0 million from $9.1 million in Q1 2025, reflecting higher revenues offset by increased operating and financing costs.
