That backdrop helps explain why the stock’s latest share price of $40.68 comes with a modest 1 year to date share price return, but a more solid 1 year total shareholder return of 8.4%. This suggests steady income driven momentum rather than a sharp rerating.

With shares trading at a small discount to analyst targets but a much deeper gap to some intrinsic value estimates, the real question is whether NNN is a quietly undervalued income compounder or if the market already reflects its future growth.
With NNN REIT last closing at $40.68 against a most popular narrative fair value of roughly $44.54, the story points to measured upside rather than a moonshot.
The analysts have a consensus price target of $44.544 for NNN REIT based on their expectations of its future earnings growth, profit margins and other risk factors.
In order for you to agree with the analyst's consensus, you'd need to believe that by 2028, revenues will be $1.0 billion, earnings will come to $425.2 million, and it would be trading on a PE ratio of 25.5x, assuming you use a discount rate of 8.3%.
Curious what kind of steady growth, margins and valuation multiple are baked into that near term upside case? The narrative leans on tight, disciplined assumptions that might surprise you when you see how they stack up over the next few years.
Result: Fair Value of $44.54 (UNDERVALUED)
