Does Acadia Realty Trust have an economic moat?

Not enough data

We cannot judge Acadia Realty Trust yet, because fewer than five years had both a return on capital and a cost of capital we could measure. This is not a “no”.

How Acadia Realty Trust scores

On the filings behind it, Acadia Realty Trust earns 4.7 out of 10 for business quality as of October 19, 2026. That is mixed quality on our scale. A mixed reading means the strengths and weaknesses roughly cancel out, and the case for the business depends on which pillars you care about most. The figure is a weighted average of five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks from reported statements.

Among the 84 Real Estate companies with a published score, that ranks at the 37th percentile, in the lower half of the group, above the bottom quarter. For reference, the middle of the group scores 5.2 and a company needs 5.9 to reach its top quarter, which leaves Acadia Realty Trust below the median.

Pillar by pillar

Profitability

Profitability scores 3.7 out of 10, which reads as weak. The median across 80 Real Estate companies is 4.8, so Acadia Realty Trust is below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 38th percentile. Low margins and returns leave little cushion, so a downturn or a cost increase reaches the bottom line quickly.

Solvency

Solvency scores 4.7 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 34 Real Estate companies is 3.7, so Acadia Realty Trust is above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 70th percentile. Leverage in the middle of the range is rarely a problem in good years, and it is worth watching how quickly it would tighten in a weak one.

Growth

There is no growth score for Acadia Realty Trust: too little of the pillar could be measured from the filings to give an honest reading. The overall is therefore the weighted average of the other pillars. Across 74 Real Estate companies the median for this pillar is 5.2. Growth needs at least three years of comparable annual statements, so a short or interrupted history leaves it blank.

Efficiency

Efficiency scores 6.3 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 80 Real Estate companies is 6.4, so Acadia Realty Trust is in line with its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 49th percentile. Middling efficiency is unremarkable on its own, though improvements here tend to show up in free cash flow first.

Predictability

On predictability, Acadia Realty Trust scores 5.0, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 4.9 across 83 Real Estate companies, which places it in line with them, at the 54th percentile. Consistency near the median is typical, and it is worth checking whether the swings came from the business itself or from one-off items.

Strongest and weakest pillar

The profile is uneven. Efficiency leads at 6.3 while profitability trails at 3.7, a gap of 2.6 points, so the overall averages a clear strength against a clear soft spot. An efficiency lead means the operation turns what it has into cash better than it does anything else. A profitability shortfall is the one most worth understanding, since it bears directly on whether the business creates value.

What would move the score

The pillar with the most room to move the score is profitability. If it rose to the median of Real Estate companies, 4.8, Acadia Realty Trust’s overall score would go from 4.7 to about 5.0. Only four of the five pillars could be scored. Together they carry 80 of the 100 weight points (the full set is profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20), and the overall is the weighted average of those alone.

How this score is calculated

Each metric is scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks, where higher is better. Metrics roll up into five pillars, and the pillars combine into the overall score using the weights shown. Sector-sensitive metrics are judged relative to peers in the same sector.

Limitations

This score is a systematic, backward-looking read of reported fundamentals. It does not judge valuation, management quality, competitive moat, or future prospects, and can be distorted by one-off items or unusual accounting. Treat it as a starting point, not a recommendation.

Five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks and then weighted into one overall reading: profitability, solvency, growth, efficiency and predictability. Everything comes from reported financials, and nothing comes from price, sentiment or forecasts.

How current is this score?
