KB Home 1-Year Sortino Ratio Calculation

The 1-Year Sortino Ratio measures the risk-adjusted return of an investment asset or portfolio over the past year, focusing specifically on downside risk rather than total risk. A stock / portfolio's 1-Year Sortino Ratio can be calculated by dividing the difference between the one-year returns of the investment and the risk-free rate, by the standard deviation of the downside risks over one year.

A downside risk is a potential loss from the asset or investment. The Downside risk here is measured by the downside deviation, which is the standard deviation of negative returns.

It is calculated as the annualized result of the average monthly excess return divided by the standard deviation of negative returns over the past year. The monthly excess return is the monthly investment return minus the monthly risk-free rate (typically the 10-year Treasury Constant Maturity Rate).
