Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Financial Services / Mortgage Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Price $14.20, market value $2.4 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 177.5×** (5-yr avg 14.1×, 3-yr avg 19.9×). Blackstone Mortgage Trust Inc. trades at 177.5× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 14.1×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×. Forward P/E is 9.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.06**. A PEG of 0.06 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / book: 0.7×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **Earnings yield: 0.6%**. The inverse of the P/E: 0.6% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Return on equity: 3.1%**. 3.1% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.

## Growth
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 154.7%** (3-yr -24.0%/yr, 5-yr -8.0%/yr). Earnings per share rose 154.7%.

## Financial health
- **Piotroski F-score: 6/9**. 6 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
- **Cash and short-term investments: $453 million**. Leverage ratios are shown differently for banks and insurers, whose balance sheets are built on deposits and reserves; use return on equity and the regulatory capital in the filings instead.

## Dividends
- **Dividend yield: 13.24%** ($1.88 per share, trailing). Blackstone Mortgage Trust Inc. yields 13.24%, high enough to check carefully: yields this high often precede a cut.
- **Payout ratio: 295%**. The dividend exceeds earnings (295% payout), which is rarely sustainable outside REITs and one-off years.
