About Alexandria Real Estate Equities
About Alexandria Real Estate Equities
Alexandria Real Estate Equities owns 35.9 million RSF of operating life science laboratory properties concentrated in seven U.S. innovation cluster markets, including Greater Boston, San Francisco Bay Area, and San Diego. At December 31, 2025, portfolio occupancy was 90.9%, investment-grade or publicly traded large cap tenants contributed 53% of annual rental revenue, and 3.5 million RSF of Class A/A+ properties were under construction. The company reported a total market capitalization of $20.75 billion.
Alexandria earns rental revenue primarily through triple-net leases, with approximately 92% of leases (on an annual rental revenue basis) structured as NNN arrangements that pass substantially all taxes, insurance, utilities, and operating expenses to tenants. Roughly 97% of leases contained annual rent escalations of approximately 3%, either fixed or indexed to CPI, providing contractual growth in base rent. The tenant base spans multinational pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology firms, life science product and device companies, academic research institutions, U.S. government research agencies, and venture capital firms. Properties are concentrated in seven geographic segments — Greater Boston, San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego, Seattle, Maryland, Research Triangle, and New York City — primarily within Megacampus environments designed for laboratory and collaborative research use. Competitors for investment opportunities include other REITs, insurance companies, pension funds, private equity entities, and foreign investors.
Show full overview
Alexandria's portfolio consists entirely of life science laboratory properties, and the 10-K explicitly flags dependence on the health of the life science industry as a material risk. Policy changes at the FDA, NIH, and SEC — or reductions in government spending and research funding — could materially affect tenants' ability to secure capital for research and development or to commercialize products, in turn impairing their ability to make rental payments. A partial or complete government shutdown could delay commercialization timelines or reduce R&D funding, exposing the portfolio to tenant financial stress beyond typical real estate credit risk.
