    Tanger Investment Narrative Recap

    To own Tanger, you need to believe its outlet and open air centers can keep attracting tenants at healthy rents while staying close to full. The latest quarter supports that narrative, with revenue of US$157.72 million and funds from operations of US$0.64 per share, even as adjusted revenue of US$149.05 million came in just below one consensus yardstick.

    The key short term swing factor is execution on leasing and re tenanting, especially higher rent backfills that support same center NOI. The biggest near term risk remains cost pressure and any gap between bankrupt tenant move outs and new leases, which could temper earnings momentum despite the raised net income outlook.

    The most relevant fresh data point is Tanger’s updated 2026 diluted net income guidance of US$1.08 to US$1.12 per share. That range tightens expectations and still reflects the year to date pattern, with nine month revenue of US$464.52 million and net income of US$95.15 million from continuing operations.

    For you as an income oriented investor, that guidance sits alongside a 7% dividend increase to US$0.3125 per quarter. The higher payout leans on the same supports as the equity story, including tenant demand and occupancy. It also sharpens focus on risks flagged earlier, such as operating cost creep and interest coverage, because those factors influence how comfortably Tanger can fund both dividends and growth projects.

    Tanger's narrative projects US$654.7 million revenue and US$148.4 million earnings by 2029. This assumes revenue increases at 1.4% per year and earnings rise by about US$22.3 million from US$126.1 million today.

    Discover how Tanger's fair value points to a 7% potential upside to its current price before other investors close that gap.
