If you invested in American Realty Capital Trust V, now American Finance Trust, Inc. (AFIN), in 2013 and paid $25 per share, you may be surprised to know that it is currently trading at under $10. Here is a 5 year recent chart of the decline of this investment:
The name was changed to American Finance Trust when the company went public in June 2018.
In a report just issued by investment bank Robert A. Stanger & Co. the listing of this former non-traded REIT has turned into an ugly “belly flop”. As recently as June 2018 the company announced an estimated per share net asset value of $23.56, which is far greater than the traded value. This represents a loss of about $1 billion of the company’s equity value.
Investors who may have purchased AFIN five years ago at $25 a share, they have lost more than 40% of their investment. Investors who paid nearly $18 a share for AFIN in the fall of 2018 have lost nearly 50%.
