Prologis Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
Strong execution amid uncertainty
SAN FRANCISCO (April 16, 2025) – Prologis, Inc. (NYSE: PLD) today announced the following results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in 2024:
•Net earnings per diluted share was $0.63, unchanged.
•Core funds from operations (Core FFO)* per diluted share was $1.42 and increased 10.9%.
•Core FFO, excluding Net Promote Income (Expense)* per diluted share was $1.43 and increased 9.2%.
“We delivered exceptional results this quarter—signing leases totaling 58 million square feet, breaking ground on new build-to-suits with strategic customers and expanding our power capacity to support the growing demand for data centers,” said Dan Letter, president of Prologis.
Hamid R. Moghadam, co-founder and CEO of Prologis, commented: “In the near term, policy uncertainty is making customers more cautious. But over the long term, limited new supply and high construction costs support continued rent growth. We’re confident in the strength and resilience of our business.”
“We operate with a fortress balance sheet and ample liquidity to navigate any environment,” noted Timothy D. Arndt, chief financial officer of Prologis. “We’re ready to move quickly as opportunities emerge.”

1.Net promote expense relates to amortization of stock compensation issued to employees related to promote income recognized in prior periods.
This is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the Notes and Definitions in our supplemental information for further explanation and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
The earnings guidance described above includes potential gains recognized from real estate transactions but excludes any future or potential foreign currency or derivative gains or losses as our guidance assumes constant foreign currency rates. In reconciling from net earnings to Core FFO*, Prologis makes certain adjustments, including but not limited to real estate depreciation and amortization expense, gains (losses) recognized from real estate transactions and early extinguishment of debt, impairment charges, deferred taxes and unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency or derivative activity. The difference between the company's Core FFO* and net earnings guidance relates predominantly to these items. Please refer to our quarterly Supplemental Information, which is available on our Investor Relations website at https://ir.prologis.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov for a definition of Core FFO* and other non-GAAP measures used by Prologis, along with reconciliations of these items to the closest GAAP measure for our results and guidance.
