Government Properties Income Trust Rankings

Russell 2000 (June 2011)

Company Description

If Government Properties Income Trust had one request of Uncle Sam it would be this: "I want you to lease our properties." As a real estate investment trust (REIT), Government Properties Income Trust invests in properties that are leased to government tenants. It owns 3 million sq. ft. of leasing space at some 30 properties, many of which are located in the Washington, D.C. area and other states. The company leases mostly to federal agencies (such as the FBI, IRS, and FDA), but it does lease to some state-run agencies as well. Government Properties Income Trust went public in 2009. Former majority owner HRPT Properties Trust owns about 30% of the company following the IPO.

      Competitive Landscape Brief

      The health of the economy drives demand for REITs as investment vehicles. Profitability depends on the value of the properties in the portfolio, which in turn highly depends on real estate vacancy rates. Large companies have advantages in deal-making, and economies of scale in marketing, computer and infrastructure investment, and operations. Smaller companies can compete by specializing not only in real estate type, but by geography, though geographic focus can increase risks.
