Dividend Yield as of March 17: 5.41%

On March 13, Scotiabank analyst Viktor Fediv raised the firm’s price recommendation on CubeSmart (NYSE:CUBE) to $42 from $39. It maintained a Sector Perform rating on the shares. The analyst noted that CubeSmart will need to complete more joint venture transactions and provide clearer details on its future expansion plans before turning more positive on the stock.

During the Q4 2025 earnings call, CFO Timothy Martin outlined the company’s 2026 outlook. He said FFO per share is expected to come in between $2.52 and $2.60. He explained that the midpoint of same-store revenue guidance assumes a macro environment similar to the prior year. It also reflects the ongoing impact of new supply in key markets, some improvement in competitive pricing, and a gradual narrowing of the occupancy gap as the year moves forward.

Martin added that the portion of properties affected by the new supply is expected to decline, with exposure falling from 24% in 2025 to 19% in 2026. He also said the company remains focused on managing expenses. At the same time, it expects pressure from higher real estate taxes, rising personnel costs, and increased winter-related expenses early in the year.

CubeSmart (NYSE:CUBE) operates as a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust. Its self-storage properties are designed to provide climate-controlled storage space for both residential and commercial customers.
