What Happened?
National Storage Affiliates (NSA) stock surged more than 30% on Monday after the company announced it would merge with Public Storage in an all-stock deal worth $10.5 billion.
Under the terms of the deal, National Storage Affiliates shareholders will receive 0.14 shares of Public Storage for each NSA share they own, valued at $41.68 per NSA share.
The transaction is expected to close in Q3 of 2026, pending shareholder approval and other closing conditions.
Just before the deal closes, the two companies will form a new joint venture that will hold 313 properties from NSA’s platform.
That covers 19.6 million rentable square feet across 28 states and Puerto Rico, with an estimated value of around $3.3 billion.
Operating partnership unitholders will own 80% of that joint venture, with Public Storage holding the remaining 20%.

Public Storage will also repay NSA’s existing bank debt and senior unsecured notes, while taking on its mortgage debt and preferred shares.
CEO David Cramer called Public Storage “the ideal strategic fit,” citing its brand and operating platform.
He added that the deal delivers a meaningful premium to NSA investors while giving them upside in the combined company going forward.
