Investing.com - JMP Securities has raised its price target on LTC Properties (NYSE:LTC) to $43.00 from $40.00 while maintaining a Market Outperform rating following the healthcare real estate investment trust’s second-quarter 2025 results. The $1.62 billion market cap company, which boasts a "GREAT" financial health score according to InvestingPro, has maintained dividend payments for 24 consecutive years.
LTC Properties reported Core FFO of $0.68 per share for the quarter, matching JMP’s estimate and exceeding the consensus expectation of $0.60 per share. The company also increased its full-year Core FFO guidance by $0.02 per share, supported by strong revenue growth of 8.74% over the last twelve months and an impressive 86.43% gross profit margin.
A key development during the quarter was the initial transition of 13 senior housing assets into a new RIDEA pool, allowing LTC to participate in the underlying cash flows of these properties. JMP noted this transition comes at an advantageous time given the limited new supply and high demand in the senior housing market.
