American Assets Trust's 2025 annual report reveals a substantial 22.5% year-over-year decrease in Funds From Operations (FFO) per diluted share, falling from $2.58 in 2024 to $2.00 in 2025. This decline was primarily driven by a significant 9% drop in office property operating income and a 6% decrease in mixed-use operating income, partially offset by a 2% increase in retail operating income and a 1% increase in multifamily operating income. The company engaged in notable asset recycling, selling Del Monte Center for $123.5 million and acquiring Genesee Park for $67.9 million, with proceeds from the sale funding the acquisition and debt repayments. While the company actively managed its debt by repaying $325 million in term loans and notes and issuing $525 million in new senior unsecured notes, the overall operational performance, particularly the FFO decline, presents a negative outlook for investors. This filing provides the full audited details following a preliminary 8-K disclosure on February 3, 2026, confirming the previously reported FFO decline and offering comprehensive financial context.
