Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Ares Commercial Real Estate share price today? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's share price was $3.36 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 27.7% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $3 and $5, and at that close it sat 1% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 28 weeks running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved −29% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 24 April 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Ares Commercial Real Estate pay? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation paid $0.60 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.15 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $3.36 that is a yield of 17.86%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Ares Commercial Real Estate on? Ares Commercial Real Estate is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Ares Commercial Real Estate profitable? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation earned $4.4 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $902 K. That is 32.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $11.0 M. 8 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Ares Commercial Real Estate make, and is it growing? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation reported $13.5 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −58.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown −8.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $72.7 M. The last four reported quarters add to $35.5 M. FY25 revenue was $72.7 M, −17.2% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −38.0% on average, against −8.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −56.0%, against −16.5% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Ares Commercial Real Estate keep? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's operating margin was 33.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 33.6 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between −2,489.7% and 59.9%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why: the operating margin move is clear, but the cost details behind it are not in our data, so we show the move without guessing the reason. ## Is Ares Commercial Real Estate's profit turning into cash? Over the last 2 years, 117% of Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $21.4 M of operating cash against −$902 K of profit. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: no single use of cash stands out. The next section checks both the cash tied up in daily operations and the spending on assets. ## Where does Ares Commercial Real Estate's cash go? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean. ## What is Ares Commercial Real Estate's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation has no P/E right now, because its earnings are negative. The revenue and margin sections are where a turn would show first. Measured against sales instead, the market values Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation at 2.6× its FY25 revenue of $72.7 M. The P/E comes back here once profit turns positive. ## Is the Ares Commercial Real Estate business getting better or worse? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Ares Commercial Real Estate earn on its capital? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation earned a ROE of 0% in FY25. That is up from a low of −7% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 1.5 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −1.2% net margin and 0.04× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −1.2% net margin × 0.04× asset turnover × 3.18× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −0.2% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −0.1% − 1.4% = −1.5 percentage points. The 1.4% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The −0.1% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 1.9%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Ares Commercial Real Estate have too much debt? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation has total debt of $1.3 B against shareholder equity of $489 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 2.58× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 2.83 in FY21 to 2.06 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Ares Commercial Real Estate shareholding pattern? 4.7% of Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 3.9 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Ares Commercial Real Estate from balance-sheet trouble? For Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Ares Commercial Real Estate rank in its industry? 31.3 out of 100, rank 20 of 25 in REIT - Mortgage, with 55% of the evidence available. Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation scores 31.3 out of 100 against the 25 companies it is compared with in REIT - Mortgage, ranking 20. Some evidence is missing, so the score is pulled toward the middle on purpose. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 10.4 + 5.1 + 9.8 + 6 = 31.3. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if ROA turns down or gross NPA rises while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Ares Commercial Real Estate compared with?

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. Financial companies use P/BV÷ROE and asset quality; PEG, industrial OPM and ROCE are excluded. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's market capitalisation is $186 M at a stock price of $3.36. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 3 November 2026). ### How is Ares Commercial Real Estate performing? Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's latest readings are below. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, for 28 weeks running. This describes what the data did, not a rating (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will Ares Commercial Real Estate's stock price go up? This page does not forecast Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's stock price. What it shows instead: the stock price is $3.36. Nobody can reliably say which way a price will move, and this site does not try (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Ares Commercial Real Estate's profit real cash?

Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Ares Commercial Real Estate a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Ares Commercial Real Estate Corporation's share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer.
