Valuation
Valuation signal
Modestly undervaluedIn our model the price counts as cheap below $4.30 and expensive above $10.03 (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.
