See our latest analysis for NNN REIT.
While NNN REIT’s 1 year total shareholder return of 10.3% contrasts with a 3.5% decline in its 3 month share price return, the recent 2.2% 7 day share price gain suggests momentum has firmed slightly around the current US$40.49 level.
If NNN’s recent moves have you thinking about income and defensiveness, it could also be a good time to scan other healthcare stocks that may fit a similar resilient profile.
With NNN REIT trading at US$40.49 alongside an indicated 47.1% intrinsic discount and a modest gap to analyst targets, you have to ask: is this reliable income on sale, or is the market already factoring in its future growth?
The most followed narrative puts NNN REIT’s fair value at US$44.54 versus the last close at US$40.49, framing the current price as a discount.
The company's ongoing acquisitions of properties with initial cap rates around 7.4% and long lease terms averaging over 17 years, amid robust sales leaseback deal flow and a rising acquisition pipeline, suggest an ability to lock in above average yields and benefit from favorable inflation linked rent escalations. This should provide durable growth in FFO and long term earnings.
Curious how steady rent escalations, modest growth, and a higher future earnings multiple all come together? The narrative is built around a quietly optimistic earnings path.
Result: Fair Value of $44.54 (UNDERVALUED)
Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.
However, this depends on competition not pushing acquisition yields lower and on tenant health holding up, since bankruptcies or slower leasing could quickly challenge that optimism.
