AFC Gamma ( (AFCG) ) has issued an update.

On January 1, 2026, Advanced Flower Capital completed its previously announced conversion from a real estate investment trust to a business development company regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, a move formally announced in a January 5, 2026 press release and accompanied by a new investment advisory agreement with AFC Management that will govern management and incentive fees from that date. In connection with the conversion, the company overhauled its governance and operating framework by terminating its prior management agreement without a termination fee, adopting new bylaws and lifting REIT-related ownership restrictions, and entering into new administration, custody, transfer agency and services agreements that collectively formalize its BDC infrastructure, broaden its investment remit beyond real estate-backed loans to a wider universe of operating businesses, and are intended to support AFC’s ability to pursue a deeper pipeline of opportunities and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for shareholders while maintaining its existing Nasdaq listing under the ticker AFCG.

The most recent analyst rating on (AFCG) stock is a Hold with a $3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on AFC Gamma stock, see the AFCG Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on AFCG Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, AFCG is a Neutral.

The score is held down primarily by weakened financial performance (TTM losses and negative profitability metrics) and bearish technicals (below major moving averages with negative MACD). Partially offsetting this are still-positive cash generation, and a moderately constructive earnings-call backdrop driven by the planned BDC conversion and diversification—though credit issues and the Q4 dividend suspension remain key risks.
