Quick Ratio

The quick ratio of 0.40x means Realty Income has $0.40 in cash and near-cash assets for every $1 of current liabilities due within a year—a low absolute level, but typical for real estate firms that rely on property holdings and rental income.

This figure sits above the sector median of 0.22x, placing the company in the 77th percentile among peers, indicating stronger near-term liquidity relative to most real estate firms. Trend data—year-over-year change, quarter-over-quarter change, and the direction over the last eight quarters—are all listed as N/A, so no historical shift in liquidity can be assessed. The combination of a relatively high quick ratio with no trend information suggests a stable liquidity position at this point, but the absence of a track record adds uncertainty. This metric contradicts the overall cautious verdict on the stock, since the company’s quick ratio outpaces the majority of its sector peers, pointing to a lower short-term liquidity risk than the cautious stance implies.
