Janus Living's Pure-Play Senior Housing REIT Supported by Dual Growth Drivers, BofA Says

-- Janus Living (JAN) is positioned as a pure-play senior housing REIT, benefiting from strong structural demand growth driven by the aging population in the US, BofA Securities said in a Tuesday note.

Analysts said Janus Living's portfolio is fully focused on Senior Housing Operating Platforms and Continuing Care Retirement Communities, with 81% of net operating income coming from CCRCs, supporting durable demand, longer resident stays, and stable cash flows driven by aging-in-place dynamics across the care continuum.

According to the note, Janus Living's 100% RIDEA structure allows it to directly benefit from operating performance, capturing upside from occupancy improvements, rate increases and margin expansion.

Janus Living's unlevered balance sheet and strong cash position give it flexibility to pursue selective external growth opportunities in an increasingly competitive senior housing market, BofA noted.

Analysts initiated coverage with a buy rating and a price target of $29.

Shares of the company rose more than 3% in recent trading activity Tuesday.
