HD 92845 has a stellar classification of A0 V,[5] indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. However, stellar evolution models from Zorec and Royer reveal it to be a subgiant that has just left the main sequence.[4] It has 3.1 times the mass of the Sun[4] but has expanded to an enlarged radius of 5.31 R.[8] It radiates with a luminosity 206 times greater than the Sun[4] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,376 K,[8] giving a white hue. At an age of 282 million years,[12] HD 92845 spins quickly with a projected rotational velocity of 81 km/s.[11]

There is an optical companion 17 away along a position angle of 214° as of 1999.[16]
