Kimco Realty Corporation is an S&P 500 REIT headquartered in Jericho, New York, and trades on the NYSE under the ticker KIM. Founded in 1958, Kimco went public in 1991 and is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of the modern REIT industry. The company expanded its national footprint through strategic acquisitions, including Price REIT in 1998, Weingarten Realty Investors in 2021, and RPT Realty in 2024, strengthening its position in high-growth Sun Belt and coastal markets. Kimco is the largest publicly traded owner and operator of open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers in the United States. As of March 31, 2026, the company owned interests in 565 shopping centers and mixed-use properties comprising approximately 100 million square feet of gross leasable area (GLA). Its portfolio is concentrated in first-ring suburbs of major metropolitan areas, with a tenant mix focused on necessity-based retailers, grocery stores, restaurants, health and wellness providers, and personal services. The company's properties generate resilient cash flows supported by strong demographic profiles and high barriers to entry. Portfolio occupancy reached a record 96.4% at year-end 2025, reflecting continued leasing demand and operational strength. Kimco maintains a highly diversified tenant base led by value-oriented and necessity-focused retailers, including TJX Companies, Ross Stores, Burlington Stores, Whole Foods Market, and Albertsons. Publicly traded since 1991 and included in the S&P 500 Index, Kimco continues to pursue growth through acquisitions, redevelopment projects, mixed-use investments, and structured investments while maintaining an investment-grade balance sheet.
