FBRT Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Franklin BSP Realty Trust Inc. projects a potential increase in quarterly distributable earnings per share (EPS) by $0.04-$0.06 through the strategic calling and releveraging of old collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). The company’s unified platform is anticipated to stimulate long-term growth in book value and earnings at risk (EAD), enhancing the market's perception of its mortgage banking earnings stream. With the expectation of resuming origination activities and a strong pipeline of opportunities by the end of the third quarter, Franklin BSP Realty Trust is positioned for net portfolio growth as the year progresses.
Bears say
Franklin BSP Realty Trust recorded a significant decline in its portfolio's principal balance, dropping by $263 million during the second quarter, which raises concerns about the overall size and sustainability of its investment strategy. Despite a steady credit quality, the persistent impairment losses on real estate indicate underlying asset weaknesses that could affect long-term performance. Furthermore, the company's cost to finance its portfolio is projected to be higher than that of its peers, leading to anticipated lower returns for shareholders and contributing to a negative outlook.
This aggregate rating is based on analysts' research of Franklin BSP Realty Trust Inc and is not a guaranteed prediction by Public.com or investment advice.
