A Crypto Storm Is Coming

Right now, conditions are in place for a historic move we expect will be the greatest crypto bull market since Bitcoin emerged. According to one crypto expert (who began mining Bitcoin in his garage in 2013): "We are in the early stages of a crypto mania - the calm before the storm." But most Americans could be blindsided by what's about to happen.

COPT Defense Properties Faces Risks: Analyst Sees Uncertainty In Leasing Process Amid Budget Cut Risks

Nabaparna Bhattacharya

JP Morgan analyst Anthony Paolone maintained the Neutral rating on COPT Defense Properties (NYSE:CDP), lowering the price forecast to $29 from $31.

The analyst suggests that while COPT Defense Properties’ management execution and business trends offer good visibility for expected growth, some emerging risks have been identified.

The most significant risk is related to DOGE, as any potential reduction in the DOD’s budget or changes in contract awards by the Federal government could slow COPT Defense Properties’ leasing process. However, Paolone finds it unlikely that the core missions supported by COPT Defense Properties’ portfolio, such as cybersecurity and critical command functions, would suddenly become less relevant, though the way funds are allocated could change.

The analyst writes, there is some anticipation surrounding COPT Defense Properties’ Huntsville market potentially being awarded the Space Command HQ, which has not yet occurred.

If another area becomes a contender for the command, it could reduce demand for build-to-suit projects.

Additionally, the analyst notes that a key part of the company’s future development growth involves data center shells for AWS in Des Moines, Iowa.

However, if the company cannot secure power or its tenant decides to proceed at a slower pace, it could impact the pipeline.

Finally, the analyst mentions that while COPT Defense Properties plans to sell its regional office assets, these sales could be dilutive to earnings growth and are not included in the company’s multi-year FFO CAGR forecast.

Price Action: CDP shares closed lower by 1.26% to $26.67 on Thursday.
