What Alexander's does
Alexander's, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a publicly traded real estate investment trust engaged in leasing, managing, developing, and redeveloping properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area. Founded in 1959 and headquartered in Paramus, NJ, the company operates with 51-100 employees under external management by Vornado Realty Trust (NYSE: VNO), which conducts all property management, leasing, development, and financing activities on Alexander's behalf. Following the May 2026 sale of Rego Park I to Northwell Health for $235.5 million, the company holds four properties: 731 Lexington Avenue (a Class A Manhattan office and retail property housing Bloomberg L.P.'s world headquarters under a lease running through 2040); the Rego Park II Shopping Center in Queens (a 600,000-square-foot multi-level retail center 99% leased to anchors including Target, Costco, Burlington, Best Buy, Marshalls, T.J. Maxx, Aldi, and Petco); The Alexander apartment tower at the Rego Center complex; and a retail property in Flushing, NY.
Revenue is generated through three primary streams: recurring rental income from commercial office leasing (dominated by Bloomberg's ~1 million square feet at 731 Lexington Avenue); recurring rental income from retail leasing at Rego Park II (with a 9.3-year weighted average lease term); and one-time gains from strategic property sales, such as the Rego Park I divestiture that generated approximately $148 million in financial statement gain. FY2025 revenue totaled $213.2 million against a $1.44 billion equity valuation and ~$2.08 billion enterprise value. The company has paid uninterrupted quarterly dividends of $4.50 per share ($18.00 annualized) for 17+ consecutive years, positioning Alexander's as a yield-oriented vehicle for income-focused investors. Capital allocation in 2024-2026 has emphasized refinancing and asset rotation (Rego Park II, 731 Lexington office, 731 Lexington retail, and the Rego Park I sale) rather than portfolio expansion, signaling a steady-state, capital-return-focused strategy.
