Valuing Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 7x. In other words, Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance shares trade at around 7x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
However, Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the reit - mortgage industry or those of similar companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 109.57% of net profits

In Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance's case, that would currently equate to about $1.88 per share.
Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
