Hudson Pacific Properties Updates Fourth Quarter FFO Outlook and Full-Year Assumptions
Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (NYSE:HPP) (the "Company" or "Hudson Pacific"), a unique provider of end-to-end real estate solutions for tech and media tenants, today updated its FFO outlook for the fourth quarter of 2025 to a range of $0.15 to $0.25 per diluted share, excluding the specified items described below, along with updated full-year assumptions (see table below). Fourth quarter FFO outlook assumes fully diluted weighted average common stock/units of 65.3 million.
The revised estimates reflect the 1-for-7 reverse stock split of the Company's common stock, par value of $0.01 per share, effective December 1, 2025, as well as the sale of its Element LA office campus, which closed on December 4, 2025, with net proceeds used to repay $206.3 million of the CMBS loan secured by that property. Specified items include $81.0 million of early lease termination revenue, partially offset by $11.7 million write-off of straight-line rent receivable and $3.3 million of loss on early extinguishment of debt, all associated with the Element LA office campus transaction.
This outlook reflects management's view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels and the earnings impact of events referenced in this press release and in earlier announcements. This outlook otherwise excludes any impact from new acquisitions, dispositions, debt financings, amendments or repayments, recapitalizations, capital markets activity or similar matters. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from these estimates.
Below are some of the assumptions the Company used in providing this outlook:

|
(4) |
Includes share/unit-based compensation expense, which the Company estimates at $16,000 in 2025. General and administrative expenses and the share/unit-based compensation exclude the impact of the one-time voluntary cancellation of non-cash compensation agreements of $14,280. |
|

(6) |
The full year weighted average common stock/units estimate reflects the 1-for-7 reverse stock split of the Company's common stock/units as if such split was effective as of January 1, 2025. Diluted shares represent ownership in the Company through shares of common stock, OP Units and other convertible or exchangeable instruments. The weighted average fully diluted common stock/units outstanding for 2025 includes an estimate for the dilution impact of stock grants to the Company's executives under its long-term incentive programs. This estimate is based on the projected award potential of such programs as of the end of the most recently completed quarter, as calculated in accordance with the ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. |
The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis, where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that would impact net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share, which is the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. This includes, for example, acquisition costs and other non-core items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.
