The Quality Score for CLDT stands at 3.8 out of 10 as of October 19, 2026, which puts Chatham Lodging Trust in the low quality band. Scores this low usually reflect thin margins, a stretched balance sheet or an erratic record, and the pillars below show which. It rolls Chatham Lodging Trust’s profitability, solvency, growth, efficiency and predictability into one number, each judged against the norms of its sector.
Among the 84 Real Estate companies with a published score, that ranks at the 20th percentile, among the weakest quarter of its peers. A typical company in the group scores 5.2, and the best quarter starts from 5.9. Chatham Lodging Trust is below that typical reading.
Chatham Lodging Trust’s profitability score is 1.9 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 4.8 among 80 Real Estate companies, that is well below the group and the 18th percentile. Weak profitability means the business converts less of its sales and capital into profit than its peers, which can come from thin pricing power, high costs or a temporary squeeze.
Chatham Lodging Trust’s solvency score is 3.4 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 3.7 among 34 Real Estate companies, that is in line with the group and the 45th percentile. A low reading here is a question about resilience: how long the company could keep paying its obligations if earnings dropped.
Growth has no score for Chatham Lodging Trust. Fewer than half of the pillar’s metric weight could be computed from the reported statements, so it is drawn as a dash and left out of the overall rather than counted as a zero. For context, the median growth score across 74 Real Estate companies is 5.2. Growth needs at least three years of comparable annual statements, so a short or interrupted history leaves it blank.
On efficiency, Chatham Lodging Trust scores 7.4, a strong reading. Its peers have a median of 6.4 across 80 Real Estate companies, which places it above them, at the 75th percentile. A strong efficiency reading usually shows up as healthy cash conversion: reported profit arriving as real cash rather than staying on the balance sheet.
Predictability scores 4.0 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 83 Real Estate companies is 4.9, so Chatham Lodging Trust is below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 40th percentile. Middling predictability suggests some volatility in the record, enough to read the other pillars with a little caution.
The gap between Chatham Lodging Trust’s best and worst pillar is wide: efficiency at 7.4 against profitability at 1.9, 5.5 points apart. An average of two readings this different deserves a closer look than the headline number. Leading with efficiency points to disciplined use of capital, a strength that compounds quietly. Weak profitability can be cyclical, so it helps to know whether margins are at a low point or a long-run level.
The pillar with the most room to move the score is profitability. If it rose to the median of Real Estate companies, 4.8, Chatham Lodging Trust’s overall score would go from 3.8 to about 4.7. With one pillar unscored, the overall rests on 80 of the 100 weight points, spread across the four pillars that could be measured (the full set is profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20).
