Key Takeaways
Four Corners Property Trust acquired five veterinary clinic properties for $13.8 million.
The portfolio spans California, Florida, North Carolina and Texas under net leases averaging nine years.
In Q3 2025, FCPT added 28 properties worth $82 million, diversifying across medical and retail sectors.
Four Corners Property Trust (FCPT - Free Report) recently announced the acquisition of a veterinary clinic portfolio comprising five properties for $13.8 million. The move underscores the company’s efforts to expand its portfolio as a strategy to remain resilient amid uncertain times.
The portfolio includes two National Veterinary Associates properties, two Banfield Pet Hospital properties and one Mission Pet Health property. Two of the five properties are located in strong retail corridors in California, and one each in Florida, North Carolina and Texas.
Priced at a 7.3% cap rate on rent as of the closing date of the transaction, the properties are corporate-operated under net leases with a weighted average remaining term of nine years.
This real estate investment trust (REIT), mainly engaged in the ownership and acquisition of high-quality, net-leased restaurant and retail properties, has a track record of acquisitions.
In the third quarter of 2025, FCPT acquired a total of 28 properties worth $82 million with a weighted average remaining lease term of 11.6 years. The acquired properties belonged to diverse industries, boosting the stability in revenue generation. 39% were medical, 36% auto service, 16% quick service restaurants and 9% casual dining restaurants by purchase price.
The above purchases fall in line with Four Corners’ strategy of structuring a portfolio that will withstand varied economic cycles. However, the company’s growth plans could encounter challenges due to its sizable $1.23 billion debt load, which may continue to keep borrowing costs high.
In the past three months, shares of this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company have declined 4.9% against the industry's growth of 3.4%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for WPC’s 2025 FFO per share has been moved northward over the past week to $4.92.
The consensus estimate for TRNO’s 2025 FFO per share has been revised upward marginally to $2.59 over the past month.
Note: Anything related to earnings presented in this write-up represents funds from operations (FFO), a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs.
