Prologis Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results

High-Quality Global Portfolio Continues to Drive Record Results

SAN FRANCISCO (October 17, 2023) – Prologis, Inc. (NYSE: PLD), the global leader in logistics real estate, today reported third quarter results for 2023.

Net earnings per diluted share was $0.80 for the third quarter of 2023 compared with $1.36 for the third quarter of 2022. Core funds from operations (Core FFO)* per diluted share was $1.30 for the third quarter of 2023, compared with $1.73 for the same period in 2022. Core FFO, excluding Net Promote Income* per diluted share for the third quarter of 2023 was $1.33 compared with $1.16 for the third quarter of 2022.

“Our results reflect strong execution by our team and the quality of our global portfolio,” said Hamid R. Moghadam, co-founder and CEO, Prologis. “That said, until there is more stability in the economy, negative customer sentiment will weigh on demand. We remain focused on capturing our embedded lease mark-to-market, building out our land bank into a favorable future supply environment, and partnering with our customers to address their most critical pain points.”

BALANCE SHEET STRENGTH & LIQUIDITY

“We have worked hard and with discipline to build an industry-leading balance sheet, which we continue to manage prudently,” said Timothy D. Arndt, chief financial officer, Prologis. “Incredibly, our balance sheet has only strengthened over the last year in terms of coverage and liquidity, something we're very proud of and allows us to be opportunistic amidst challenging markets."

During the third quarter, Prologis and its co-investment ventures issued an aggregate of $1.4 billion of debt at a weighted average interest rate of 3.2%, and a weighted average term of 5.9 years.

At September 30, 2023, debt as a percentage of total market capitalization was 22.3%, and the company’s weighted average interest rate on its share of total debt was 2.9%, with a weighted average term of 9.5 years. In addition, the company has no significant debt maturities until 2026.

FOREIGN CURRENCY STRATEGY

Prologis hedges its exposure to foreign currency fluctuations by borrowing in the currencies in which it invests and using derivative financial instruments. At September 30, 2023, 96% of Prologis’ equity was in USD and forecasted earnings for 2023, 2024 and 2025 were 99%, 99% and 98%, respectively, in USD or hedged through derivative contracts.
