FR analyst price targets
FR analyst data as of October 2026, sourced from Yahoo Finance and may be delayed. A price target is what an analyst published on a date, not a forecast Walnut endorses, and targets are typically set on a 12-month view. Verify current figures before deciding.
The average target of $72.25 sits above the $59.71 price, +21.0%. The median is $72.50, and where the two differ the median is the steadier read, because one unusually high or low target cannot drag it.
What the FR target range actually tells you
The published targets span $66.00 to $86.00. That gap is 28% of the average target, which counts as narrow disagreement. A spread that tight means the analysts broadly agree on the model, so the consensus is a reasonably stable read rather than an average of wildly different views.
The useful move is to read the high target as one bull scenario and the low target as one bear scenario, then ask which set of assumptions you find more plausible. Both cases are worked through on the FR is it a buy page.

The most recent published rating actions on FR within the last six months, from Yahoo Finance. Each row is dated because a target only means something alongside the date it was set. Walnut is not an investment adviser and does not endorse any of these views.
In the last six months there have been 9 raises and 1 cut among these actions. The direction of revisions is often more telling than the level, because it shows which way informed opinion is moving.
How analysts rate FR
Of the analysts with a published rating, 10 say buy, 7 say hold, and 0 say sell, so 59% carry a buy. That mix has been broadly steady over the last three months.
Read the distribution rather than the label. Sell ratings are rare across the entire market for structural reasons, so a stock with no sell ratings is unremarkable, while even a handful of them is worth understanding.
Why a FR price target is not a prediction
- It is a 12-month model output. An analyst picks assumptions for revenue, margin, and a multiple, and the target falls out of the arithmetic. Change one assumption and the target moves a lot.
- The distribution is skewed. Sell-side coverage carries far more buy ratings than sell ratings across the whole market, so the average is not a balanced vote.
- Targets follow price as often as they lead it. Revisions frequently arrive after a move, not before, which is why a rising target is weak evidence on its own.
- Nobody is scored on it. There is no cost to a target that never gets close, so treat accuracy as unverified unless you check the firm's record yourself.
Is there a 2030 forecast for FR?
Not a published one. Analyst price targets run to about twelve months, occasionally two years, and the firms covering FR do not put out a 2030 number. Anything presenting one is extrapolating a growth rate rather than reporting research, and a figure produced that way tells you about the assumption chosen, not about the company.
On the figures we hold as of October 2026, FR trades at about 21.9 times trailing earnings and 31.7 times forward earnings. A forward multiple at or above the trailing one means the market is not pricing in earnings growth over the next year, which is worth understanding before assuming a long-horizon rise.
That is the more useful frame for a ten-year question. A share price is the market’s estimate of future cash flows discounted to today, so the multiple is already a statement about growth. The long-horizon question is whether First Industrial Realty Trust can deliver what is priced in, and what would have to change for that to break. Both are answerable from the drivers and risks below. A number for 2030 is not.
What could move FR from here
In short: the drivers cited most often are Rent growth on lease renewals, Development and land pipeline, Concentrated logistics footprint. The risk cited most often against it is like all REITs, First Industrial is sensitive to interest rates: higher rates raise its borrowing costs, can pressure property values, and make its dividend yield less attractive versus bonds.
Both sides are worked through properly, with the high and low targets used as the bull and bear anchors, on the FR is it a buy page. This page deliberately stops at the numbers.

FAQ

That is +21.0% against the $59.71 price at the time of the data pull, so the consensus sits above where the stock trades. The median target, which is less distorted by one extreme view, is $72.50. Targets move constantly; verify the current figure before relying on it.
How high could FR go?
+

The gap between them is the honest answer to this question: analysts who all follow First Industrial Realty Trust closely disagree by 28% of the average target, so treat any single number as one scenario.
How many analysts cover FR?
+
16 analysts publish estimates on FR as of October 2026. Of those with a published rating, 10 say buy, 7 hold, and 0 sell, so 59% carry a buy rating. More coverage usually means the consensus is better informed, though it also means the obvious points are already in the price.
Are analyst price targets for FR accurate?
+
Treat them as informed opinion, not measurement. Two things are worth knowing. Sell-side ratings skew positive across the market, and FR is no exception at 59% buy ratings, so the distribution is not a balanced vote. And targets tend to follow the share price at least as often as they lead it, getting raised after a stock has already run. They are most useful as a read on what the informed consensus expects, and least useful as a prediction of where the price lands.
Has the FR price target been raised or cut recently?
+
In the last six months there have been 9 raises and 1 cut among the published actions on FR. The most recent was Wells Fargo, which raised its target to $66.00 from $61.00 on September 1, 2026. The direction of revisions often tells you more than the level, because it shows which way the informed view is moving.
What is the FR stock price prediction for 2030?
+
There is no published one. Analyst targets run to about twelve months and no firm covering FR publishes a 2030 figure, so any site showing one has extrapolated a growth rate rather than reported research. The answerable version of the question is what the current price already assumes about First Industrial Realty Trust's earnings, which the forward multiple on this page sets out, and what would have to change for that to break.
Will FR go up in 2026?
+

What the numbers on this page tell you is where informed opinion currently sits and how much it disagrees with itself, which is genuinely useful and completely different from a prediction.
