Memo

ADAMAS TRUST, INC. (ADAMN). Latest full fiscal year: 2025; data up to 2026-09-30.

Figures computed from the financial statements: ROE -0.1%; net debt/EBITDA 9.4x.

The estimated value range is 12.47–27.67 USD per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: low); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 21.77 USD, the price of 21.21 USD leaves a potential of 2.6% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of 2.5% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

Insufficient data for a verdict (indicators available: 4 of at least 6; score weight coverage: 56.5% of at least 60%).

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

What supports the thesis

No signal among the computed factors. That is not an absence of risk: factors without data were not assessed, and business risks (margins, inventory, demand) are in the source-based analysis.

What contradicts it

  • ROE: -0.1%
  • Net debt / EBITDA: 9.4x
  • The valuation methods diverge

Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): EBITDA margin, Revenue CAGR 3Y, Interest coverage, P/E (TTM), Payout ratio (EPS).

AI analysis

AI-generatedAI-generated analysis (Claude) from cited public sources; it may contain errors. Not investment advice. As of 27 Oct 2026 · Model: claude-haiku-5-5.

In brief

Adamas Trust is an internally managed REIT that invests in residential mortgage-related assets, mainly Agency RMBS and business purpose loans for real estate investors through its subsidiary Constructive. The investment portfolio reached 10.5 billion USD at the end of fiscal 2025, and in the second quarter of 2026 the company acquired 1.5 billion USD of new investments, showing where it is expanding now.

SWOT

Strengths

  • Integrated origination platform through Constructive, with proprietary access to credit assets that supports the sourcing strategy.
  • Large Agency RMBS holdings, considered less sensitive to credit deterioration.
  • Steady growth in interest income and new investments over recent quarters.

Weaknesses

  • High leverage could amplify losses if the value of assets declines.
  • Reliance on repurchase agreements and warehouse lines creates exposure to credit market conditions.

The business

The company operates as an internally managed REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and aims to generate durable earnings through disciplined portfolio management. Its portfolio includes credit sensitive assets tied to single-family and multi-family properties, as well as fixed-income investments such as Agency RMBS 1. On September 3, 2025 it changed its name from New York Mortgage Trust to Adamas Trust 1.

Since July 15, 2025 the company fully owns Constructive, a business purpose lender for real estate investors operating in 48 states 1. Constructive gives the company a proprietary source of credit assets and a scalable origination platform, and in the second quarter of 2026 it originated more than 400 million USD of new loans 3. The business is complemented by single-family rental properties and mezzanine lending 1.

The strategy focuses on assets with less price sensitivity to credit deterioration, such as Agency RMBS, and on higher quality business purpose loans, especially those sourced through Constructive 1. Management has gradually reduced exposure to multi-family properties, which is becoming a smaller part of the balance sheet 1.

Segments

Investment portfolio

This segment, which mainly includes residential mortgage-related assets, generates most of the company's revenues and interest income 1. At the end of the second quarter of 2026, Agency investments reached 7.2 billion USD, with an average coupon of 5.48% 3.

Constructive

The Constructive segment covers the origination of loans for real estate investors, earning revenue from the origination and sale of loans 1. During the second quarter of 2026, Constructive originated 427.6 million USD of business purpose loans, and the BPL-Rental portfolio grew to 2.3 billion USD in unpaid principal balance 3.

Market context

The company's market is linked to residential mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities backed by government sponsored enterprises or agencies, and demand depends on interest rate levels and available financing 1. The company notes that elevated interest rates from early 2022 through late 2024 contributed to valuation declines in parts of its portfolio 1.

The market for business purpose loans for real estate investors is more expensive and riskier, where originators with proprietary platforms may have operating advantages 1. The company believes these operating barriers allow it to earn better risk-adjusted returns over time 1.

Trends

  • Rising interest ratesheadwind

    Demand for rate sensitive assets could fall if interest rates rise again, which would reduce the availability of some assets and increase financing costs 1. For this reason the company favors assets with shorter duration and higher coupons 1.

  • Business purpose loanstailwind

    Growth in BPL-Rental loans and related securitizations could support higher income if the market remains active 3. However, these loans carry different risks from traditional residential mortgage loans 1.

  • Securitization financingmixed

    Access to securitizations and warehouse lines can support portfolio growth, but financing terms may vary 23. The company reports expanded warehouse capacity in the second quarter of 2026 3.

  • Full ownership of Constructivetailwind

    Full control of Constructive could reduce reliance on third parties for new assets and could support returns over time 13.

Competitive position

The company notes that competition may prevent it from acquiring assets on favorable terms or at all 1. In investor loan and mortgage-backed securities markets several players may compete for the same assets 1.

The company's stated advantage rests on its proprietary Constructive origination platform and its access to credit sources through partnerships, which may reduce competitive pressure in some segments 13.

  • Other mortgage REITs

    Companies investing in the same types of mortgage assets that may compete for acquisitions, as described in the competition risks of the filing.

  • Business purpose loan lenders

    Independent originators of loans for renovation and rental that may compete directly with the Constructive platform.

  • Institutional investors in mortgage securities

    Funds and investors buying Agency RMBS and other securities that compete for the same acquisition opportunities.

  • Banks and mortgage loan originators

    Institutions that sell loans in the secondary market and can influence the price of assets available to the company.
