The companies
KIMKimco Realty Corporation
REIT - Retail · $22.45 · beta 0.96
Why now
REIT - Retail · market cap $15.1b. 16% off the 52-week high of $26.65. 21 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $26.51 (implying +18% upside).
Moat
Net margin 28% sits well above the S&P median (~11%) — suggests structural pricing advantage or cost discipline competitors can't quickly close.
Risk
Dividend payout 121% of earnings on a 5.1% yield — distribution coverage is thin; one earnings stumble could force a dividend cut. ROE 6% is below the long-run sustainable threshold of ~10% — capital efficiency would need to improve for the equity base to compound at the market rate.

Common questions
Is GTY or KIM the better stock?
GTY scores higher: GTY 73.0, KIM 69.0 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth score, which blends business quality, growth and valuation into one number. A higher score means a stronger business at a more reasonable price — it is not a price target or a recommendation.
How are GTY and KIM scored?
Each carries the same 0–100 quality-growth score used everywhere on the site, built from three pillars — quality (profitability and returns on capital), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (what you pay for them) — combined as a geometric mean, so a weak pillar cannot be papered over by a strong one.
