Societatea Energetica Electrica (BVB:EL)

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Societatea Energetica Electrica S.A. operates in Romania, focusing on the operation, construction, and maintenance of electricity distribution networks with a market capitalization of RON5.20 billion.

Operations: Electrica generates revenue primarily from electricity and natural gas supply (RON9.86 billion) and electricity distribution (RON4.82 billion). A notable financial aspect is the consolidation eliminations and adjustments, which reduce total revenue by RON2.24 billion. The company's net profit margin shows an interesting trend, reflecting its efficiency in managing costs relative to its revenue streams.

Electrica, a notable player in the energy sector, has seen its debt to equity ratio rise from 13.6% to 77% over five years, reflecting increased leverage. Despite this high net debt to equity ratio of 65.6%, its interest payments are comfortably covered by EBIT at a multiple of 3.4x, indicating sound financial management amidst industry challenges. Trading at nearly 20% below estimated fair value suggests potential undervaluation compared to peers. Recent board changes with Mihai Diaconu as Chair and strategic committee realignments might steer Electrica towards improved governance and operational efficiency in the coming years.
