OUTFRONT Media is a real estate investment trust, which provides advertising space (displays) on out-of-home advertising structures and sites in the U.S. and Canada. Co.'s inventory consists of billboard displays, which are primarily located on highways and roadways, and transit advertising displays operated under multi-year contracts with municipalities in cities across the U.S. and Canada. Co.'s portfolio includes sites in and around both Grand Central Station and Times Square in New York, various locations along Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, and the Bay Bridge in San Francisco. In addition to providing location-based displays, Co. also delivers targeted audiences to its customers. The OUT YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the OUT YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether OUT YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the OUT YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
