NETSTREIT Corp.

NTST
Real Estate · REIT - Retail

NETSTREIT Corp.'s three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it.

Biggest watch item: margins are the best this company has ever printed — every ratio flatters at record profitability, so the whole story leans on margins holding.

The price is in a confirmed uptrend (29 weeks in). Underneath, the last four quarters read improving, and 800% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: the next one or two quarters of delivery.

01 · Price story

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

NETSTREIT Corp. trades at $21.9, in a confirmed uptrend and 29 weeks into that stage. That is +12.5% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 94% of a 52-week range of $17 to $22. On relative strength it has been ahead of the S&P 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 3 straight weeks.

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 29 of stage 2. At $21.9 it trades +12.5% versus its 200-day average and sits at 94% of its 52-week range ($17–$22).

Jul 26: $21.9 Weekly closing price ($) with 50- and 200-day averages; shaded bands mark the price stage (grey base, green advance, amber top, red decline). 3-year window.

Beating or trailing, week by week since 2020 Each cell is one week from 2020 to now (312 weeks): the stock's trailing 13-week return minus the S&P 500's, green ahead / red behind (±25% ramp). Grey cells are the 13-week warm-up or weeks where the S&P 500 reading is not held.
trailing 13-week return vs the S&P 500
Aug 20Jul 26

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 6.0 years the stock moved +22% while the S&P 500 moved +120% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 3 straight weeks — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

→ The trend is one thing; the bill is another. Are you paying up for it? Next: how the P/E reads against its own history.

02 · Valuation

Valuation P/E is the price of $1 of annual profit: how many dollars the market pays for each dollar the company earns in a year.

NETSTREIT Corp. trades at 147.8× P/E, against too little history to rank. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 147.8× is against too little history to rank. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

as reported

The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +7.3%/yr price move, ~+9.1%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−1.8 pp from the multiple (compressing). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.

Put together: the multiple is unremarkable against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

→ Cheap or dear rides on the earnings. Are they actually growing? Next: the fundamental stage — where the business sits in its arc, and how growth has compounded.

03 · Stage: Mixed

Stage: Mixed Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

NETSTREIT Corp. reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE holding at 2.1% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 12 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Three growth curves, twelve quarters Year-on-year growth of trailing-twelve-month revenue (left axis), profit and EPS (right axis — they swing far wider), % at each quarter-end. A missing point means that reading is not held for the quarter.

4-Factor Sector Score

39.4/100 — rank 22 of 26 in REIT - Retail · 60% evidence confidence

NETSTREIT Corp. scores 39.4 out of 100 against the 26 companies it is compared with in REIT - Retail, ranking 22. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 18 + 6.8 + 4.8 + 9.8 = 39.4. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if ROA rolls over or gross NPA rises while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

05 · Revenue

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

NETSTREIT Corp. reported $0.1 B of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +20.0% year on year. That is the 5th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 4 years it has compounded at 35.1% a year. The last full year, FY25, came in at $0.2 B. The last four reported quarters add to $0.2 B.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +23.8% growth against the decade's 35.1% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +23.5% over the last 4 quarters against +22.5%/yr over the last 8 — stabilising.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 33.3% this quarter (+13.3 pp YoY).

06 · Operating margin

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every $100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

NETSTREIT Corp.'s operating margin is 33.3% in the Mar 26 quarter, +13.3 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 0.0% to 25.0%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

NETSTREIT Corp.'s operating margin is 33.3% in the Mar 26 quarter, +13.3 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 0.0% to 25.0%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 33.3%, +13.3 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 0.0%–25.0%, and FY25's 25.0% is the top of that band — a record year.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +13.3 pp year on year while gross margin went +3.3 pp — the gain came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

Worth repeating from the valuation section: cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap — a record margin flatters every ratio built on top of it.

07 · Net profit

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

NETSTREIT Corp. earned $0.0 B of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter. Full-year FY25 profit was $0.0 B. That is 16.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $0.0 B. 2 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.

→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: 800% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash.

08 · Cash flow — the router

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 800% of NETSTREIT Corp.'s reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY25 that was $0.1 B of operating cash against $0.0 B of profit. After $0.6 B of capital spending, $−0.5 B was left as free cash.

FY25: operating cash of $0.1 B against reported profit of $0.0 B, leaving free cash of $−0.5 B after $0.6 B of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 800% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

FY25: CFO $0.1 B vs profit $0.0 B Operating cash flow and net profit by fiscal year, $ B; the line is free cash flow (CFO minus capital spending). 5-year window, annual resolution. FY21/FY22/FY23/FY24/FY25 reflects an acquisition year — point shown clipped.

Why: conversion is measured cleanly, but the working-capital day-counts behind it sit below what we hold — the move is shown without inventing its driver.

Router verdict: the visible cash user is investment — the next section checks what the spending is buying.

→ So follow the cash to where it goes. Next: $2.0 B of building over 3 years.

09 · Where the cash goes

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

NETSTREIT Corp. does not report the debtor, inventory and payable day-counts a cash cycle is built from, so this section reads the investment side instead. Capital spending ran $2.0 B over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 333.3% of FY25 revenue a year.

Working-capital day-counts are not in our numbers for this stock, so this section reads the investment side — where the cash is being put to work.

On the investment side: capital spending of $2.0 B over the last 3 fiscal years.

FY25: capex $0.6 B Capital spending per fiscal year, $ B (bars).

The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.

→ Does all this activity actually earn its cost of capital? Next: ROE is 1% and the ROIC − WACC spread is −4.2 pp.

10 · Return on equity

Return on equity Return on equity (ROE) is the profit the business earns on its shareholders’ money. With the full capital-employed split not in our numbers, ROE is the cleanest long ladder we can draw here.

NETSTREIT Corp. earns a ROE of 1% in FY25. That is up from a trough of −1% in FY24. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −4.2 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 5.0% net margin on 0.08× asset turns.

FY25 ROE is 1%, recovered from a FY24 trough of −1% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY25): 5.0% net margin × 0.08× asset turns × 1.80× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 0.7% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 2.8% − 7.0% = a −4.2 pp spread. The 7.0% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.

11 · Dividend

Dividend A dividend is cash paid out per share. Dividend per share is the declared amount for the period; the trailing twelve-month total is the four most recent quarters added together.

NETSTREIT Corp. paid $0.86 per share over the last four reported quarters, up 4.8% on a year ago. The most recent declaration was $0.22 for Mar 26. Against the current price of $21.9 that is a trailing yield of 3.92%, measured on dividends already paid rather than on a forecast.

12 · Debt

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.

NETSTREIT Corp. carries total debt of $1.4 B against shareholder equity of $1.6 B as of Jun 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.89. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.30 in FY21 to 0.76 in FY25. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.

Ownership There is no quarter-by-quarter holder register to read here, so we read the crowd through short interest — the slice of tradable shares currently sold short, positioned for a fall.

32.8% of NETSTREIT Corp.'s tradable float is currently sold short — a large bloc is positioned against it. At typical trading volumes those positions would take about 11.1 days to buy back. There is no quarter-by-quarter holder register to read for this filer, so the crowd is read through short interest instead.

The latest reading: 32.8% of the float is sold short, and at typical trading volumes it would take about 11.1 days to buy those positions back. A large bloc is positioned against it. This is a single point-in-time reading — we do not yet hold its history, so we show no trend chart.

→ One last check: does the safety math agree? Next: the balance-sheet safety line.

14 · Safety line

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

NETSTREIT Corp.: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.

Related companies · same industry · REIT - Retail Every company is compared on the shape of its own curves, not static ratios. The Revenue, EPS and ROCE columns each draw that company's last 12 quarters as a mini line of the ACTUAL level (trailing-twelve-month revenue and EPS, and the ROCE itself) — so a line that climbs is a business getting bigger, a line that sinks is one shrinking. The colour tracks the same line: green when it is rising or steadily healthy, amber when it is rolling over from a high (still elevated but turning down), red when it is falling, grey when flat or stuck. Colour and direction always agree — a green line never points down. The ROCE curve is the return on capital (annual readings for peers, so a slightly coarser line than the quarterly one at the top of this page). The Stage column then runs the same 12-quarter trajectory classifier used at the top of the page on each company and names where it sits. What lands a company in each bucket: CONSISTENT — growth stays positive across the window and returns are healthy (ROCE ≥ 15%, or ROE ≥ 12% for lenders); IMPROVING — profit or EPS fell into real decline, bottomed a few quarters back, and has climbed back to positive and held there; TURNING AROUND — the same kind of trough but more recent, with the latest quarters just lifting off it (an early, unconfirmed turn); TOPPING OUT — growth is still positive but decelerating hard from its own peak while returns have stopped rising; DETERIORATING — two or more growth curves are shrinking (latest below zero) and staying there, not one soft quarter; MIXED — the curves genuinely disagree, or no clean majority, so no single word fits; NO READ — fewer than eight usable quarters. It is a like-for-like read of every company against its own past, not a ranking against the group.

Is NETSTREIT Corp. a stock worth studying right now?

This is not investment advice. The machine read: NETSTREIT Corp.'s three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it.
