Sun Communities (SUI) SUI 0.00%↑ reported an interesting mix in guidance.

The projected growth rate in Core FFO per share is weak. That seems pretty negative.

On the other hand, the projected growth in every Net Operating Income metric ranges from pretty good to great.

I dove into the results. I’ll aim to keep it brief, but I’ll put a TL;DR (summary) at the bottom anyway.

Spoiler: I failed at keeping it brief. Came in a bit over 1,500 words.

SUI is a REIT that owns manufactured home parks, RV parks, and marinas.

Visualize a mobile home park that's expanding within natural boundaries. The park is surrounded by a flowing river on one side, creating a serene boundary. On the opposite side, a dense forest marks the edge of the park, with clearings here and there for future expansions. The mobile home park is nestled in a valley, giving it a secluded feel. Within the park, the expansion is happening in harmony with nature: new mobile homes are being installed with care not to disturb the existing trees and wildlife. Some mobile homes are tucked away in small clearings in the woods, while others are arranged in clusters with communal green spaces in between. The layout of the park follows the natural topography, with paths winding around the landscape, leading to the riverbank where there's a small dock for canoes and a picnic area. This scene showcases a community growing in a sustainable manner, respecting and incorporating the natural beauty of its surroundings.

Disclosure: Obviously not a real photo. Also, we own shares of SUI.
