The main question: the share price moved −36.0% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −657.5%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the KKR Real Estate Finance Trust share price today? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc.'s share price was $5.21 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 23.9% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $5 and $9, and at that close it was at the low of that range. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 9 weeks running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved −44% 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 4 September 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 KKR Real Estate Finance Trust pay? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. paid $0.85 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.10 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $5.21 that is a yield of 16.31%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is KKR Real Estate Finance Trust on? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust 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 KKR Real Estate Finance Trust profitable? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. posted a net loss of $122 M in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $69.9 M. That loss is 236.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $35.4 M. 8 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was −$69.9 M (−634.7% on the year before). ## How much revenue does KKR Real Estate Finance Trust make, and is it growing? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. reported −$51.5 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter. Over 4 years it has grown −45.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $15.8 M. The last four reported quarters add to −$72.4 M. FY25 revenue was $15.8 M, −84.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −125.5% on average, against −45.3% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. ## How much of every $100 of sales does KKR Real Estate Finance Trust keep? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc.'s sales have fallen to very little: FY25 revenue was $15.8 M, against $177 M in FY21. On sales that small an operating margin is not a useful reading, so this section is left out until sales recover. ## Is KKR Real Estate Finance Trust's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 259% of KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $72.3 M of operating cash against −$69.9 M of profit. After null of spending on assets, $72.3 M was left over as free cash. 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 KKR Real Estate Finance Trust's cash go? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. 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 KKR Real Estate Finance Trust's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc.'s P/E is 51.9×, with too little history to compare. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 58.8×, over 4 months of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −657.5% while the price moved −36.0%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the KKR Real Estate Finance Trust business getting better or worse? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc.'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 11 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. The latest quarter’s profit includes a one-off item bigger than the normal business, so the profit line is shown but does not count in this reading. The return figures here are yearly, not quarterly. They show level and direction only; they can support the growth lines but never decide the reading alone. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does KKR Real Estate Finance Trust earn on its capital? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. earned a ROE of −6% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 4.1 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −3.2% − 0.9% = −4.1 percentage points. The 0.9% 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 −3.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at −0.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does KKR Real Estate Finance Trust have too much debt? KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. has total debt of $4.3 B against shareholder equity of $990 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 4.36× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 3.89 in FY21 to 3.83 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the KKR Real Estate Finance Trust shareholding pattern? 14.8% of KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so a large group of traders is betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 5.7 days. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. 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 KKR Real Estate Finance Trust from balance-sheet trouble? For KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc., 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 KKR Real Estate Finance Trust rank in its industry?
