Acres Commercial Realty: The High-Yielding Preferred Stock Could Be Interesting
Acres Commercial Realty (ACR) specializes in first mortgage loans, with 80% of its portfolio tied to multifamily properties, and manages a $2.2 billion asset base. The company's preferred shares, particularly the Series C, offer a high 9.6% yield with floating rate features, presenting a compelling income opportunity despite modest dividend coverage. Management has maintained strong credit performance, with minimal loan losses over five years. The common stock is viewed as speculative, dependent on successful portfolio expansion, with upcoming results as a potential catalyst.
