Key statistics
The headline figures for O.

What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of O's valuation, growth and risks.
At 40.25 times trailing earnings, the P/E on Realty Income Corp. (O) is 9.9% below the Real Estate sector median P/E of 44.7, and the peer comparison on this page calls it broadly in line with peers. On sales, the P/S of 8.67 is 16.6% below the sector median P/S of 10.4. To put the size in context, O has a market value of $53.1B.
Revenue grew 9.60% over the latest year, which is 1.4 percentage points behind the 11.0% median for Real Estate. Profitability shows a net margin of 20.90% and an operating margin of 46.97%. It reports a return on equity of 3.23%, below the sector median of 5.8%. It also reports debt-to-equity of 0.75 and a trailing dividend yield of 5.79% ($3.25 a share a year).
O's most recent quarterly report, released on August 5, 2026, showed EPS of $0.37. That fell short of the $0.42 analysts had estimated, a miss of 11.90%. In the first session after the release, the share price dropped 0.54%.
O has not beaten the EPS estimate in any of its last 8 reports. The consensus EPS estimate stands at $1.51 for this fiscal year and $1.55 for next, growth of 29.1% for the current year.
O's daily returns have a 30-day standard deviation of 0.98%. Because the price remains beneath both moving averages, the downtrend carries its own risk. The price is 17.46% under its 52-week high of $67.94. Insiders sold $1.3M of stock over the last 18 months and made no open-market purchases. Sales like these are often scheduled ahead of time or made to pay tax on vesting shares, so they are a weaker signal than buying would be.

- Keep an eye on the two closest levels: the 50-day SMA at $58.70 sits above the price, and the 20-day EMA at $55.56 sits below it.
- The 14-day RSI reads 49.4, in the neutral zone, with the MACD line negative; readings above 70 or below 30 mark stretched momentum.
- Following the August 5, 2026 report, the share price declined 0.54% in the first session. O has beaten estimates in 0 of the last 8 reports.
O remains in a downtrend while it sits below both its 50-day average of $58.70 and its 200-day average of $61.71. A close back above the 50-day would be the first sign of a repair. The 50-day SMA at $58.70 is the first hurdle overhead.
To the downside, the first level under the price is the 20-day EMA at $55.56.

Long-term scenarios
Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in O, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 10-year Monte Carlo simulation projects that a $10,000 investment in O today could grow to about $13,026 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $37,634 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $4,509. The simulation models price only; at today's 5.79% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
O Stock Price Prediction: 2030
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $62.34 for O by 2030 in the base case, from $56.08 today (1.1x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $31.87. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on O's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.
| Year | 10th percentile | Base case | 90th percentile | range base today |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | $41.17 | $57.58 | $80.54 | |
| 2028 | $36.79 | $59.13 | $95.02 | |
