Frequently asked questions
What is Ares Commercial Real Estate's revenue?

How profitable is ACRE?
In its most recent fiscal year, ACRE ran a gross margin of 57.36%, an operating margin of 72.39%, and a net margin of -1.06%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does ACRE generate?
ACRE produced $19.72M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
