Piedmont's third quarter 2025 results reflect a significant turnaround in U.S. office demand, achieving record leasing levels and exceeding consensus FFO estimates. The company stands poised for sustainable earnings growth driven by strong market dynamics.

• Positive absorption in U.S. office space reached 12 million square feet in Q3, marking the first increase since late 2021.
• Despite a challenging hiring landscape, leasing of 724,000 square feet for new tenants in Q3 was the highest in over a decade, contributing to a year-to-date total of approximately 1.8 million square feet.
• Piedmont's in-service lease percentage increased to 89.2%, positioning the company to achieve its year-end leasing goal.
• Over $40 million in annualized uncommenced leases have been secured, with expected commencement by the end of 2026, indicating strong future earnings potential.
• Rental rates across the portfolio have increased significantly, bolstered by competition for premium spaces and limited supply, with some properties now commanding rates up to $48 per square foot.
