The thesis, from the filings

American Strategic Investment Co. earns about -43% on invested capital, but has diluted owners by 57% over 5 years — worth asking whether the growth reaches owners. The cash-flow models don't apply cleanly here — the ledger says why below. Whether it’s worth owning at today’s price is the last question — and yours to answer, below.

Moat signal · return on invested capital
-43% avg · 5y
FY21 -5%FY22 -7%FY23 -31%FY24 -147%FY25 -26%

It earned an average -43% on invested capital over 5 years. Compare that to what it costs to fund the business.

Management signal · capital allocation
+57% shares · 5y

Share count is up 57% over 5 years — owners have been diluted. Worth asking what they got for it.

Signals, not verdicts — read from the filings above. Numbers don’t prove a moat; they show its footprint. You decide.

iv. What it’s worth — engine v0.6.0
DCF · Growth Exit 10Y
not applicable
REIT — real-estate depreciation is an accounting charge on assets that generally appreciate, so it inflates free cash flow and depresses reported earnings and book value at the same time. Every model here reads one of those, and none is a fair base. FFO/AFFO is the applicable measure — see the FFO capitalisation model, which values REITs from it.
