Description: LINE Lineage, Common Stock October 31, 2025
Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ: LINE) is the world’s largest temperature-controlled warehouse REIT, operating roughly 485 facilities that together provide about 88 million sq ft (≈ 3.1 billion cu ft) of refrigerated space across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
Key operating metrics (as of the most recent 2023 filing) show an occupancy rate near 95 % and a same-store net operating income (NOI) growth of roughly 7 % YoY, driven by strong demand from food-and-beverage manufacturers and retailers. The company generated approximately $1.2 billion in revenue last year and maintains a dividend yield around 5 %.
Sector-wide, the temperature-controlled logistics market is expanding at a compound annual growth rate of 5-6 % due to accelerating e-commerce food delivery, heightened supply-chain resilience requirements, and stricter sustainability regulations that push producers toward more efficient, low-waste distribution networks.
Assuming Lineage’s portfolio composition and occupancy remain stable, its exposure to food-price inflation and global demand for refrigerated storage should support earnings continuity, though any significant shift in consumer demand patterns or a sharp rise in energy costs could materially affect margins.
