Rexford Industrial Realty (REXR) is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) that owns and operates industrial properties, primarily in Southern California. As such, its customers are other companies that lease industrial space for their business operations, rather than individuals.

Rexford maintains a highly diversified tenant base, serving approximately 2,400 customers. According to its public filings (e.g., 2023 10-K and investor presentations), no single customer accounts for more than 0.9% of its total portfolio revenues. Furthermore, its top 25 customers collectively represent only 15.6% of its total portfolio revenues.

Due to this extensive diversification and lack of significant revenue concentration from any single entity, Rexford Industrial Realty does not have "major customers" in the traditional sense. Therefore, specific names of major customer companies are not publicly disclosed by Rexford, as none meet a threshold to be individually identified as "major" to the company's financial performance.

Its customer base consists of businesses across a wide range of industries that require industrial space for purposes such as:

• Logistics and distribution
• E-commerce fulfillment
• Light manufacturing and production
• Research and development (R&D)
• Last-mile delivery operations
• Creative and entertainment uses

The key risks to Rexford Industrial Realty (REXR) primarily stem from its concentrated market exposure and the broader economic environment impacting real estate investment trusts.

1. Geographic Concentration in Southern California: Rexford Industrial Realty's portfolio is heavily concentrated in the Southern California infill industrial market. This geographic focus, while historically a strength, makes the company particularly vulnerable to regional economic downturns, market-specific supply and demand imbalances, and local regulatory changes. Any softening of the Southern California market could significantly impact the company's performance, affecting occupancy rates, rental growth, and overall revenue.
2. Interest Rate Sensitivity and Cost of Capital: As a real estate investment trust (REIT), REXR is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Rising interest rates can lead to increased borrowing costs for acquiring new properties, refinancing existing debt, and funding development projects, which can negatively impact profitability and growth prospects. Steady or rising interest rates could also limit the company's ability to refinance debt on favorable terms or reduce the amount third parties are willing to pay for its assets, affecting capital recycling.
3. Softening Industrial Market and Supply-Demand Imbalance: The broader industrial real estate sector, including the Southern California market, has shown signs of softening demand, increasing vacancy rates, and an overhang of new supply. This heightened supply-demand imbalance could make it challenging for Rexford Industrial Realty to maintain historical occupancy levels, achieve targeted rental rate growth, and meet leasing spread targets, ultimately pressuring rental income and overall financial performance.

• In Los Angeles County, the industrial market spans over 902.1 million square feet.
• The Inland Empire industrial market totals 742.9 million square feet.

Rexford Industrial Realty (REXR) is expected to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through several key strategies:

• Strong Leasing Activity and Rental Rate Growth: The company has consistently demonstrated its ability to achieve significant increases in rental rates on new and renewal leases. For example, comparable rental rates increased by 23.8% on a net effective basis in Q1 2025 and 26.1% in Q3 2025, indicating strong pricing power and demand for its industrial properties in Southern California infill markets.
• Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment Projects: Rexford Industrial actively enhances its asset value through strategic repositioning and redevelopment initiatives. In 2024, the company stabilized ten repositioning and redevelopment projects, demonstrating its capability to deliver substantial unlevered stabilized yields. These projects are anticipated to contribute to higher growth in 2025 and 2026.
• Strategic Acquisitions in Infill Southern California Markets: Rexford's core strategy involves acquiring industrial properties within the supply-constrained Southern California infill markets, which are characterized by high demand and limited new supply. This focused acquisition approach allows the company to capitalize on favorable market conditions and expand its high-quality portfolio.
• High Occupancy Rates and Tenant Retention: The company maintains consistently high same-property occupancy rates, reaching 96.8% in Q3 2025, coupled with healthy tenant retention levels. This strong occupancy and stable tenant base ensure a consistent and growing stream of rental income.
• Sustainability Initiatives and Technology Integration: Rexford is focused on integrating smart building solutions and digital marketing strategies, alongside a strong commitment to sustainability. The company plans to increase its installed or committed solar capacity to over 60 MW by 2028 from 29 MW in 2024. These efforts enhance operational efficiency, tenant satisfaction, and can attract tenants prioritizing environmentally responsible properties, thereby supporting revenue growth.
