Fair value as of: Jul 27, 2026
From 5 valuation models · updated 14 days ago

Below-average quality, screening 187% undervalued on our models.
What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (43/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($1.12). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- A fairly wide model range ($1.12 to $2.29) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis
Lument Finance Trust, Inc (LFT) currently trades at $0.6970, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $2.00, implying the stock looks roughly 186.9% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 43/100 (below-average quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Lument Finance Trust, Inc generated revenue of $15.3M at a net margin of -13.2%. Revenue grew 208.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -0.9%. Net debt stands at $965M. Fundamentals as of Jul 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $1.12 (bear case) to $2.29 (bull case); at $0.6970, the current price sits below that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 69% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at 2% fair-value upside, at 187%, LFT screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 5 models by family
