Real Estate · REIT - Diversified · United States · High Yield Income
Is BNL undervalued?
BNL closed at 18.15 on 16 Oct 2026, which is 24% above the GLS average fair value of 14.69 from 9 models. 6 of them value the shares below today's price. Our screens read that as "no margin of safety": the stock is not a value candidate at this price, whatever the quality numbers say.
The 9 models disagree widely: GLS Growth gives 0.0542 while 10 Cap gives 28.88. A spread that wide means the average is sensitive to which methods you trust; the model table below shows where each one lands, and the Quote page lets you switch any of them off.
The nightly engine files BNL under High Yield Income: a dividend yield above 4%.
Nine valuation models for BNL
Each model turns the latest filed numbers into a value per share; the GLS fair value is the simple average of the ones that produce a positive number. The last two rows are shown for reference and never enter the average. The Quote page lets you switch any model off and add your own margin of safety.
| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 22.26 | +23% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 16.05 | -12% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 13.11 | -28% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 3.49 | -81% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 0.0542 | -100% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 28.88 | +59% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 22.82 | +26% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 17.18 | -5% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 8.42 | -54% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | 11.32 | -38% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 24.00 | +32% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - BNL passes 6 of the nine Piotroski tests, which passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. The Financials tab on the Quote page shows which tests fail. The GLS Moat score is 5.5 out of 10: a ten-year record that is consistent in some of the metrics the score tracks (revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, returns on capital) and patchy in others.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 1.9%, ROE 3.5%, ROA 1.8% - with debt at 0.90 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 7.8%.
The dividend yield is high at 6.43% (payout ratio 152%) - a payout above 100% of earnings, which is not covered by profits. A yield this size is often the market's way of pricing a risk to the payout, so the health score and cash flow matter more than usual. Revenue comes mainly from Tenant Reimbursements 99%, Real Estate Other 1% (quarter Q4 FY2018).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 1.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 5.5 / 10 | ROE | 3.5% |
| Debt / equity | 0.90 | ROA | 1.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 7.8% | Payout ratio | 152% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 59: Fair
BNL scores 59 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-64): a usable but unremarkable fit for the wheel strategy. The parts: Value 3/25, Health 13/20, Moat 8/15, Premium 16/20, Stability 18/20. Value (3/25) is where the points are missing.
Implied volatility is 31% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out: some premium, but under the 35-60% range the Wheel Score pays full marks for (16 of 20 points). Chain open interest is thin - 1,718 contracts across every expiry - so fills at a fair price are not guaranteed; a 30-45-day put may not exist at a usable strike.
Volume runs at 3.0M shares a day on a market cap of $3.5B, with a beta of 0.94; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 18 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 3 / 25 | -24% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 8 / 15 | moat 5.5/10 | |
| Premium | 16 / 20 | implied volatility 31% | |
| Stability | 18 / 20 | 3.0M shares/day, $3.5B cap, beta 0.94 |
