Vornado Realty Trust has beaten earnings in 3 of the last 4 quarters and trades at 6.3x price-to-operating cash flow with a 30% margin of safety, but its portfolio is 78% office properties concentrated 88% in New York, the price is well above its analyst target, and a put-to-call ratio of 4.35 signals heavy bearish hedging.

About Vornado Realty Trust
About Vornado Realty Trust
Vornado Realty Trust concentrated approximately 88% of 2025 NOI in the New York metropolitan area, drawing from 51 Manhattan operating properties that include 19.2 million square feet of office space — source of roughly 78% of 2025 NOI — and 2.3 million square feet of street retail accounting for approximately 16% of NOI, with 1,331 residential units alongside THE MART (3.7 million square feet) in Chicago and a 70% controlling interest in 555 California Street (1.8 million square feet) in San Francisco's financial district.
Vornado earns revenue through multi-year office and retail leases on Manhattan properties; no single tenant exceeded 10% of total revenues in 2025, 2024, or 2023. The office portfolio — concentrated in the New York metropolitan area, which the company describes as the largest office market in the United States — faces competition from newer and more amenitized Class A buildings, requiring ongoing capital expenditure to maintain competitive positioning. Active redevelopments include PENN 2 (1,825,000 square feet, $750 million estimated cost, $724.8 million expended as of December 31, 2025) and 623 Fifth Avenue (383,000 square feet, $450 million estimated cost, $222.6 million expended), with the latter targeted for tenant delivery in 2027. Vornado also holds a 32.4% interest in Alexander's, Inc., which owns the 1.1 million square foot Bloomberg, L.P. headquarters at 731 Lexington Avenue, and a 49.9% equity stake in the Sunset Pier 94 Studios joint venture (266,000 square feet, $350 million estimated development cost) formed with Hudson Pacific Properties and Blackstone.
Show full overview
The 78% NOI concentration in office space subjects Vornado to structural shifts in how tenants use physical space. The 10-K identifies work-from-home and hybrid-work policies, and the potential for artificial intelligence to prompt tenants to reconfigure or reduce footprints, as ongoing risks that may adversely affect demand. At the same time, 350 Park Avenue represents a binary decision point: Citadel in December 2025 exercised an option to anchor a new 1,850,000 square foot tower, giving the Vornado/Rudin JV until July 2026 to take a 23%–40% ownership stake or receive a $900 million put payment — which could either add a major new office asset or generate significant liquidity.
