<h1>How Are Analyst Ratings Determined?</h1>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

<h3>What Defines a Value Stock?</h3>
A value stock traditionally has a lower price when compared to stock prices of companies in the same industry. This indicates that the company may be undervalued, as investors are not expressing as much interest in such companies. The most commonly used way to check for value is with the price-to-earnings multiple, or P/E. A low P/E multiple is a good indication that the stock is undervalued. 
<h2>Benzinga Insights has compiled a list of value stocks in the real estate sector that may be worth watching:</h2>
<ol>

<li>Ladder Cap (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LADR#NYSE">LADR</a>) - P/E: 9.64</li>
</ol>

This quarter, Transcontinental Realty experienced a decrease in earnings per share, which was $6.82 in Q4 and is now $0.41. Most recently, Seven Hills Realty Trust reported earnings per share at $0.39, whereas in Q4 earnings per share sat at $0.37. Most recently, the company reported a dividend yield of 13.24%, which has decreased by 0.79% from last quarter's yield of 14.03%.
This quarter, Amrep experienced an increase in earnings per share, which was $0.68 in Q2 and is now $3.12. Ladder Cap's earnings per share for Q1 sits at $0.38, whereas in Q4, they were at 0.31. Most recently, the company reported a dividend yield of 8.7%, which has decreased by 0.85% from last quarter's yield of 9.55%.
The Significance: A value stock may need some time to rebound from its undervalued position. The risk of investing in a value stock is that this emergence may never materialize.
