Factor Analysis Summary

Editorial assessment generated from Derwent London PLC's live factor scores and sector positioning.

Based on Strategyland's proprietary 7-factor analysis, Derwent London PLC (DLN.L) currently holds an overall rank of #276 out of 280 FTSE 100 constituents, reflecting its weighted composite score across liquidity, valuation, profitability, solvency, asset efficiency, market trading, and technical dimensions.

Its primary strength lies in technical (RSI 35.4), where it demonstrates generally favourable technical indicators with price holding above key moving averages.

Areas requiring attention include liquidity, where thin trading volumes could increase transaction costs and slippage, as well as profitability (ROE 4.5%, net margin 11.7%), where compressed margins and weak returns on equity weigh on the earnings profile.

Within the Real Estate sector, Derwent London PLC sits at composite rank #276, trailing the Real Estate peer average (rank 155). It ranks behind all 6 tracked Real Estate peers in our model.

The composite profile is weighed down by 5 below-average factor scores, with liquidity (rank 253/280) representing the most significant drag on its #276 overall standing.

Methodology Note

The analysis presented for Derwent London PLC is produced using Strategyland's proprietary 7-factor quantitative model, which evaluates each stock across Liquidity, Valuation, Profitability, Solvency, Asset Efficiency, Market Trading, and Technical dimensions. Individual factor scores and the composite rank reflect relative rankings within the FTSE 100 universe — a lower rank number indicates stronger performance in that category.

Underlying financial and market data is sourced from LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group) and processed through our scoring engine. Scores are recalculated as new data becomes available and should be interpreted as a systematic screening output, not a forecast of future share price performance.

This content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation, or an offer to buy or sell any security. Past performance and factor rankings are not indicative of future results. Please read our Risk Disclaimer before making any investment decisions.
