# SL Green Realty (SLG) Beats On FFO As Valuation Questions Come Into Focus

## Why SL Green Realty’s latest quarter is drawing investor attention

SL Green Realty (SLG) is back in focus after reporting second quarter 2026 funds from operations of $1.43 per share, ahead of expectations, alongside higher net rental revenue and better performance in its Manhattan portfolio.

See our latest analysis for SL Green Realty.

At a share price of US$53.82, SL Green Realty has seen a 26.9% 90 day share price return and a 14.61% year to date share price return, while the 3 year total shareholder return of 73.07% contrasts with a slightly negative 1 year total shareholder return. Recent gains have come alongside its second quarter 2026 earnings release and ongoing share repurchases, which together appear to have shifted sentiment toward improved business fundamentals and perceived risk.

## Most Popular Narrative: 4.3% Overvalued

At $53.82, SL Green Realty trades a little above the most followed fair value estimate of $51.61. This estimate is built on detailed revenue and margin forecasts using a 9.2% discount rate.

Curious what sits behind a fair value that still comes in below today’s price? The core narrative leans on shrinking revenue, improving margins and a lofty future earnings multiple that is far above typical office REIT assumptions.
