How Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. scores

On the filings behind it, Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. earns 6.5 out of 10 for business quality as of October 19, 2026. That is solid quality on our scale. A solid reading is a respectable business with clear strengths and at least one area that falls short of the best in its field. The figure is a weighted average of five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks from reported statements.

Ranked with the 84 Real Estate companies Lemma publishes, the score sits at the 92nd percentile, near the very top of the group. The median across the group is 5.2, and the top quarter begins at 5.9, so Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. is above the typical company here.

Pillar by pillar

Profitability

Profitability scores 9.5 out of 10, which reads as strong. None of the other Real Estate companies scores higher here, against a median of 4.8 across 80 of them. Returns and margins at this level leave room to reinvest, absorb a bad year or return cash to shareholders without straining the business.

Solvency

Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc.’s solvency score is 4.1 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 3.7 among 34 Real Estate companies, that is in line with the group and the 58th 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

Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc.’s growth score is 4.5 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 5.2 among 74 Real Estate companies, that is below the group and the 36th percentile. A middling growth reading is typical of a mature company whose next step depends on reinvestment rather than on its market growing for it.

Efficiency

Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc.’s efficiency score is 6.7 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 6.4 among 80 Real Estate companies, that is in line with the group and the 54th percentile. Efficiency near the median says the operation is neither unusually lean nor unusually capital hungry.

Predictability

On predictability, Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. scores 6.8, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 4.9 across 83 Real Estate companies, which places it well above them, at the 91st percentile. Middling predictability suggests some volatility in the record, enough to read the other pillars with a little caution.

Strongest and weakest pillar

This is a lopsided profile. Profitability scores 9.5 but solvency only 4.1, a gap of 5.4 points, so the overall hides a business that is excellent in one respect and weak in another. Leading with profitability is the most valuable kind of strength, because margins and returns are what the other pillars ultimately feed. A solvency shortfall makes the business more exposed to rising rates and to a weak year.

What would move the score

Of everything that could lift Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc.’s score, growth matters most. Bringing it up to the 5.2 median of Real Estate companies would take the overall from 6.5 to roughly 6.6. All five pillars could be scored, so the overall uses the full set of weights out of 100: profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20.
