Plain-Language Summary
Our base-case estimate uses P/FFO × Default REIT Multiple. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $11.00 from 18 analysts, using a 25% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $26.19 per share.
Warnings
Standard profit figures are misleading for real estate companies — large non-cash accounting charges make profits look artificially low. Dividend yield and funds from operations are better measures.
Dividend yield of 5.2% is unusually high — make sure the company generates enough cash to keep paying it.
Wall Street's average price target is $11.00 (from 18 analysts). Our estimate is 184% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.
Key Risks
- P/E and EV/EBITDA are structurally wrong for REITs — use P/FFO and NAV
- Interest rate sensitivity: REIT multiples compress when rates rise
- FFO approximation (NI + D&A) may include gains on property sales — verify
