They anticipate average occupancy between 94.75% and 95.25% for 2025. Prologis has increased its development starts guidance for 2025, signaling confidence in expansion plans. Specifically, development starts are projected between $2.25 billion and $2.75 billion. A significant portion of new development starts are build-to-suit projects across the U.S. and Europe. Analysts predict Prologis will grow earnings and revenue in the coming years. The company is forecast to grow earnings by 4.2% and revenue by 4% per annum. Prologis's expansion into data centers and renewable energy presents key growth opportunities.
