On February 10, 2025, BRX reported an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.27, outperforming the anticipated $0.22. This achievement underscores the company's proficiency in surpassing market expectations. Nevertheless, its revenue of approximately $328.4 million marginally fell short of the forecasted $328.8 million.
Despite this slight discrepancy, the reported revenue represents a 3.8% year-over-year increase, as detailed in the company's fourth-quarter 2024 financial results. However, this figure did not meet the Zacks Consensus Estimate by -1.85%.
Despite these misses, BRX's quarterly revenue slightly surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.30%, totaling $328.44 million. This increase from the prior year's $316.49 million demonstrates strong tenant demand and leasing productivity. CEO James Taylor expressed contentment with the company's performance, highlighting the positive momentum and strategic positioning for the future.
BRX's financial metrics offer additional insights into its market valuation. The company's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio stands at approximately 24.12, and its price-to-sales ratio is about 6.21, indicating that the market values BRX's earnings and revenue at a premium. A debt-to-equity ratio of 1.85 suggests moderate debt usage, while a current ratio of 1.38 signifies adequate liquidity to meet short-term obligations. These figures reflect BRX's financial stability and investor confidence.
