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. The ratio above is therefore based on free cash flow.

For real estate companies (REITs), depreciation on buildings depresses earnings even though buildings rarely lose value. The usual measure is therefore FFO (funds from operations), approximated here as earnings plus depreciation; gains and losses from property sales and impairments are not removed. Measured on earnings, the payout ratio, P/E and PEG therefore look higher than the earning power warrants. We only show FFO when depreciation is material and the figure is in line with operating cash flow, so not for REITs that carry their properties at market value: their earnings include the change in property values. For the fair value of US REITs, by contrast, FFO follows the industry rule from the filings with the SEC: gains on property sales are deducted there where the company reports them in the standard items.

Is today's dividend yield unusually high?

Dividend yield today

4.07%

$1.60 dividend per share over the last twelve months on a price of $39.33

Today 4.07%, in fiscal year 2025 3.90%.

To rate the yield, the calculator needs at least four fiscal years with a dividend and a price; here there is one. The figures are shown anyway.

Since the end of fiscal 2025 on 31 Dec 2025, the dividend has risen more than the price, so the yield has risen.

  • Fiscal year
  • Today, last 12 months

For each fiscal year, the dividend per share for that year divided by the closing price on the last trading day of the fiscal year. The dashed line is the average (median) of the fiscal years.
