On Oct. 22, the company announced its Q3 2024 earnings, posting an FFO of $0.25, missing the consensus estimate of $0.26. Revenues of $83.484 million came in above the consensus of $82.347 million, as reported by Benzinga.

The company currently estimates that GAAP net income for 2024 will be between $0.45 and $0.47 per diluted share and FFO between $1.03 and $1.05 per diluted share.

Given the expected % downside potential of 5%, growth-focused investors may not find Retail Opportunity Investments stock attractive. Conversely, the stock can be a good option for income-focused investors, who can benefit from the company's solid dividend yield of 3.46%.
