Goldman Sachs resumes coverage on Essex Property Trust (NYSE: ESS) with a Buy rating and $181 price target.
"We believe Essex's earnings growth – derived from a combination of development and strong revenue growth – should drive share price performance," the analyst said. Goldman's model presumes a five-year earnings growth forecast of 53%, third-best in their apartment coverage universe.
Growth is coming from: "(1) internal growth, as our model anticipates five-year NOI
growth of 28%, highest in our coverage, due to exposure to low supply Southern California markets and (2) a meaningful contribution from the company’s $546 million share development pipeline."
