- MEQIRI Score 48 out of 100 (Weak): rank 231 of 327 in Real Estate, median 55.
- The P/E is 11 (REIT (Mortgage) median 13.5, own median of recent years 13).
- For real estate investment trusts (REITs) what counts is funds from operations (FFO and AFFO). The P/E and the payout ratio of earnings say little here, because depreciation on properties depresses earnings.

Valuation
Valuation signal
Modestly undervaluedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $8.37 and expensive above $19.53 (uncertainty high, mortgage REIT, the fair value is book value alone).
Valuation metrics
For mortgage REITs the fair value is book value per share: equity excluding preferred stock from the latest balance sheet, divided by the shares on the same date. The signal therefore assumes at least high uncertainty.
