BRT Apartments Corp. (NYSE: BRT) reported its 2025 financial results on March 13, 2026, showing a net operating income of $51.2 million—essentially flat compared with the $51.3 million recorded in 2024. The company posted a diluted net loss of $0.63 per share, a widening from the $0.52 loss per share reported in 2024, and total revenue of $97.0 million, up 1.5% or $1.4 million from the $95.63 million earned in 2024.
The modest revenue growth was driven by steady rental income across BRT’s 31 multi‑family properties, which total 8,311 units in 11 states. Occupancy remained high, and rent growth was modest, reflecting the company’s focus on stable, long‑term cash flow rather than aggressive expansion.
BRT’s net loss widened because operating costs rose, driven by higher payroll, utilities, and property taxes, while interest expense increased as the company refinanced debt at higher rates. The company also invested in capital deployment to support its value‑add acquisition strategy, which added to the cost base for the year.
The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share, payable April 6, 2026, with a record date of March 27. It also extended its share repurchase program through December 31, 2028, increasing the authorized buyback amount to $10 million.
While revenue and operating income were largely unchanged, the widening net loss raises questions about the sustainability of the dividend and the company’s ability to service its debt. Management has emphasized stable occupancy and a focus on high‑growth markets, but the higher operating and interest costs suggest that profitability will remain under pressure in the near term.
BRT’s 2025 results underscore the company’s continued emphasis on value‑add opportunities and disciplined capital allocation, but the financial metrics indicate that investors should monitor cost trends and debt servicing as the company pursues its growth strategy.
