STRATUS PROPERTIES INC represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
STRATUS PROPERTIES INC receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 44.5/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2883 out of 7,333 stocks. STRS's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
STRATUS PROPERTIES INC registers a weak quality score of just 24/100, indicating significant profitability challenges. The company reports a return on equity of -4.7% (sector avg: 9.0%), gross margins of -24.1% (sector avg: 77.7%), net margins of -67.8% (sector avg: 21.9%). Low quality scores are often associated with businesses in turnaround mode, early-stage growth, or structurally challenged industries.
STRS registers a value score of just 16/100, suggesting the stock trades at a significant premium to its fundamental metrics. Key valuation metrics include a P/B ratio of 0.71x. High-premium valuations like this require strong future execution to avoid multiple compression, and downside risk is elevated if growth disappoints.
STRATUS PROPERTIES INC's investment score of 38/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of -41.5% vs. a sector average of 10.7% and a return on assets of -2.7% (sector: 1.3%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
STRS shows strong momentum characteristics with a score of 89/100. The stock has been trending above key moving averages, indicating solid demand from institutional buyers. Revenue growth stands at -41.5% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.29 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. This level of momentum typically signals sustained investor confidence and favorable near-term price action.
STRATUS PROPERTIES INC registers a low stability score of 20/100, indicating high volatility and potentially stressed financial conditions. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.29 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 72.00x (sector avg: 0.5x). Stocks at this level carry elevated capital loss risk and may be unsuitable for conservative portfolios without careful risk management.
STRATUS PROPERTIES INC's short interest score of 10/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include above-average market sensitivity (beta: 1.29), elevated leverage (D/E: 72.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. At $171M (micro-cap), STRS carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.
STRATUS PROPERTIES INC is a micro-cap company in the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2883 of 7,333 overall (61st percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -4.7% trailing the 9.0% sector median and operating margins of -64.4% below the 18.1% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate peers.
While STRS currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the FINANCE, INSURANCE, AND REAL ESTATE sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
