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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT share price today? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc.'s share price was $36.65 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been stalling near its high for 6 weeks. That is 12.4% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $30 and $37, and at that close it was at the high of that range. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 2 weeks in a row. Over the last 1 year the share price moved +11% while the S&P 500 moved +49%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT pay? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. paid $1.79 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.40 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $36.65 that is a yield of 4.88%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is SmartStop Self Storage REIT on? SmartStop Self Storage REIT 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT profitable? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. earned $11.1 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $9.4 M. That is 15.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $8.5 M. 8 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does SmartStop Self Storage REIT make, and is it growing? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. reported $72.0 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +11.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 8th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 13.2% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $268 M. The last four reported quarters add to $283 M. FY25 revenue was $268 M, +17.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +16.7% on average, against 13.2% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +16.4%, against +12.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does SmartStop Self Storage REIT keep? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc.'s operating margin was 23.9% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 8.5 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 21.7% and 30.2%. 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT's profit turning into cash? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc.'s cash-flow history is too short to judge how much of its profit turns into cash. In FY25 it brought in $85.0 M of operating cash against −$9.4 M of profit. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT's cash go? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc.'s P/E is 72.6×, with too little history to compare. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 69.4×, over 7 months of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT business getting better or worse? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, 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 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT earn on its capital? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. earned a ROE of −1% in FY25. That is up from a low of −5% in FY21. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 1.6 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −3.5% net margin and 0.11× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −3.5% net margin × 0.11× asset turnover × 1.90× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −0.7% 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: 2.6% − 4.2% = −1.6 percentage points. The 4.2% 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 2.6% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at −28.6%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does SmartStop Self Storage REIT have too much debt? SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. has total debt of $1.1 B against shareholder equity of $1.3 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.89× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 1.45 in FY21 to 0.86 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the SmartStop Self Storage REIT shareholding pattern? 8.9% of SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc.'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 6.0 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT from balance-sheet trouble? For SmartStop Self Storage REIT, 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT rank in its industry? 51.8 out of 100, rank 7 of 17 in REIT - Industrial, with 67% of the evidence available. SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. scores 51.8 out of 100 against the 17 companies it is compared with in REIT - Industrial, ranking 7. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 19.3 + 9.4 + 3.8 + 19.3 = 51.8. 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 SmartStop Self Storage REIT 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.
