Now it's a question of how markets will react to this bad but better than expected results. Has it already been priced in already?
Extracted from Prime Result Announcement Slides
U.S. Office Trends
JLL Research Office Outlook    Q2 2023
- Continued bifurcation across U.S. office markets. Tentative green shoots emerging with certain markets stronger than others.
- More than 60% of office vacancy concentrated in 10% of buildings
-      Leasing momentum  is tentatively    improving. U.S. office    leasing volume    rebounded in 2Q2023, following three consecutive quarters of decline, with    leasing activities growing    11.6%  quarter-over-quarter (QoQ).
-  RTO momentum continues.    Office attendance rates trending 9% higher YoY. More companies shifted policies in favor of more office-centric attendance in 2Q202.
-      Net absorption showed signs of an inflection point, with negative net absorption slowing 40% QoQ from 20 million sq ft in 1Q2023 to 12.5 million sq ft in 2Q2023.
-      Asking rents  nationally are    continuing to grow, at 0.6% growth QoQ
-  A slowing volume of deliveries, increased leasing activity, and accelerated demolitions and conversions of older vintage product are pointing to the increasing likelihood that U.S. office vacancy rates will peak over the near term, and begin to decline in 2024. 
Observations on the ground in 2Q2023^
^ based on tour of assets in 2Q2023, includes direct feedback from leasing agents and direct large tenant engagement
-  Anecdotal evidence that corporates are continuing to find ways to get people back to office  & ndash from encouraging to mandating, they have not given up on this effort
-  Several  significant tenants  at  PRIME assets  in latest visits have  mandated (at least hybrid) return to work  & ndash AGG (law firm, Atlanta), Goldman Sachs (financial services, 222 Main), Matheson (industrial gases, Tower 909) and Teleflex (medical tech, Crosspoint)
-  While uneven across markets, there will be an inflection point where corporate decisions on RTO will influence others to follow suit
-  Leasing activity is showing signs of recovery in several markets & ndash however not consistently deep, and some leasing markets are recovering at a faster pace
-  People bring back people & ndash well-amenitized assets and activities at the assets are key & ndash we are on the right track
-  Two-way communication with tenants critical & ndash what they need from landlords and what are delivering to them

I came across article that big US corps are advocating people to return office. This is an eventuality as covid measures were never the norm. I believe employers will have the final say, unless you don' t need the paycheck. 
So PrimeUS may be a beneficiary down the road.
Vested.

Overall, really not as bad as expected, but still it's a pretty significant qoq degradation, especially the occupancy drop is still worrying, if it deepens in the following quarters.
Looking at the nav now makes no sense as there was no new valuation. I would be wary of the next release in valuation 6 months later.

Some inv theory advocates to assess Reits using NTA.  At this depressed price vs its NTA, it should be pretty safe. With its declared dpu, is added insurance.  I have used 5-10% of my spare cash to buy this at an avg USD0.165
Hope market see this results positively and accord higher valuation.

Wow, still got 2.46 cts DPU...beat my very very pessimistic expectations :)
