How GMRE-PA scores on the REIT Specialized defenses

Rent Pricing Power

Score 58 · 20% of the moat score

For a REIT, pricing power is the ability to raise rents at renewal and still keep the space occupied.

AFFO Strength

Score 45 · 18% of the moat score

AFFO — adjusted funds from operations — is the cash a REIT can actually distribute after the recurring capital spending buildings need in order to stay leasable.

Balance Sheet & Cost of Capital

Score 38 · 20% of the moat score

Real estate is bought with borrowed money, so a REIT's cost of capital is its competitive advantage.

Capital Recycling & Growth

Score 30 · 16% of the moat score

REITs grow by issuing shares and debt to buy more property, which creates value only when the yield on the asset exceeds the cost of the capital raised.

Operational Efficiency

Score 60 · 14% of the moat score

Running property — leasing, maintenance, taxes, management — is the part of the business a REIT genuinely controls.

Portfolio Quality & Diversification

Score 37 · 12% of the moat score

Portfolio quality is really a question about what happens when a tenant fails.

Understanding GMRE-PA's moat

What is Global Medical REIT Inc. Series's moat score?

Global Medical REIT Inc. Series (GMRE-PA) scores 44 out of 100 on the StatsAlpha Moat Map, which rates its competitive advantage as developing. The score is a weighted composite of 6 competitive defenses, each measured against industry peers of 20 companies in REIT - Healthcare Facilities. Its strongest defense is Operational Efficiency (60/100) and its weakest is Capital Recycling & Growth (30/100).

How is the moat score calculated?

Each company is scored with an industry-specific template — REIT Specialized in this case, chosen because the defenses that matter to a bank are not the ones that matter to a software company. Every defense combines several financial signals, and each signal is measured as a percentile against a peer group of 20 companies in REIT - Healthcare Facilities. The defenses are then weighted to produce the overall score out of 100.

Why is Global Medical REIT Inc. Series scored with the REIT Specialized template?

A REIT is a portfolio of buildings financed with debt and required to distribute most of its taxable income. Reported earnings are dominated by depreciation on assets that often appreciate, so net income says very little; the real question is how much cash the properties distribute, and how securely. The REIT template scores what determines that: rent pricing, distributable cash, cost of capital, and the discipline behind growth.

Which competitive defenses are measured for Global Medical REIT Inc. Series?

The REIT Specialized template measures 6 defenses, and GMRE-PA scores: Rent Pricing Power (58), AFFO Strength (45), Balance Sheet & Cost of Capital (38), Capital Recycling & Growth (30), Operational Efficiency (60), Portfolio Quality & Diversification (37). Each is scored independently as a percentile against peers, so a company can be strong on one and weak on another — the overall score reflects how those defenses are weighted for this industry.
