A share price tends to move through four phases: moving sideways (stage 1), rising (stage 2), stalling near a high (stage 3) and falling (stage 4). Today Sun Communities, Inc. is in stage 4. The phase helps read everything below.

Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 1 week in a row.

Over the last 10 years the share price moved +56% while the S&P 500 moved +261%, 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.

Sun Communities, Inc. paid $4.32 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $1.12 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $121.24 that is a yield of 3.56%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast.

A dividend is cash paid out for each share. The 12-month total is the four most recent quarters added together.

Sun Communities is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list.

Sun Communities, Inc. posted a net loss of $1.0 B in the Jun 2026 quarter. That quarter includes a one-off gain bigger than its revenue, so the comparison with last year does not reflect normal business. Full-year FY25 profit was $1.4 B. Over 4 years profit has grown 36.3% a year on average.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

That loss is 210.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $58.4 M.

For the full year, FY25 profit was $1.4 B (+1,235.4% on the year before).

Read this profit with care: at −$1.0 B it is bigger than the quarter's whole revenue of $487 M. No business earns more than it takes in from sales, so this is a one-off item (for example a debt settlement, a tax write-back or an asset sale), not money the business earned. The underlying business is running at a 23.2% operating margin. The jump on last year, and any P/E built on this profit, come from the one-off, not from a real turn in earnings.

Sun Communities, Inc. reported $487 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter. Over 4 years it has grown 0.6% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $2.3 B.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

The quarterly figures for FY23, FY25 do not add up to the full-year total on file, so those quarters are left out of the charts and sums.

FY25 revenue was $2.3 B, +2.8% on the year before.

Sun Communities, Inc.'s operating margin was 23.2% in the Jun 2026 quarter. Across 5 years it has been between 20.2% and 23.5%. The latest quarter is within that range.

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

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.

Over the last 3 years, 137% of Sun Communities, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $864 M of operating cash against $1.4 B of profit.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

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.

Sun Communities, 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.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean.

Sun Communities, Inc.'s P/E is 145.6×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many dollars the market pays for each dollar of yearly profit.

Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +1,422.7% while the price moved −4.2%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range.

Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +0.5% a year; about −35.3% a year came from earnings growth and about +35.8 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple.

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.

Sun Communities, 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 4 quarters of 1 measure, with some gaps.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

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.

Compound annual growth rate (%)

Compound annual growth rate over each period, %. Revenue, profit and EPS come from yearly figures; the stock price row is price growth over the same periods. A dash means no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss.

Sun Communities, Inc. earned a ROE of 20% in FY25. That is up from a low of −3% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 2.1 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses.

Return on equity (ROE) is the profit the business earns on its shareholders’ money. We do not have the full capital split, so ROE is the longest history we can draw here.

It comes from a 62.2% net margin and 0.18× asset turnover (sales divided by assets).

Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 62.2% net margin × 0.18× asset turnover × 1.77× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 19.8% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing is a big part of it.

The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 5.3% − 7.4% = −2.1 percentage points. The 7.4% 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 5.3% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 3.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method.

Sun Communities, Inc. has total debt of $4.1 B against shareholder equity of $5.6 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.73× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.86 in FY21 to 0.61 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page.

Debt-to-equity shows how much of the business is paid for with borrowed money. Lower is safer, and the direction matters as much as the level.

5.7% of Sun Communities, 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 5.7 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead.

There is no quarter-by-quarter list of owners here, so we look at short interest: the share of tradable shares held in short positions, which gain if the price falls.

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 has the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story.

For Sun Communities, 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.

The Z-score estimates how far a company is from balance-sheet trouble. Above about 3 is safe; below about 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not used for banks and lenders.
