# BKV Corporation (BKV) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-11-04. NYSE, United States. Sector: Energy / Oil, Gas & Fuels. Price $19.82, market value $2.2 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 7.1×** (5-yr avg 13.2×, 3-yr avg 13.2×). BKV Corporation trades at 7.1× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 13.2×: cheap by its own standards. The Energy median in the September 2026 study was 16.8×. Forward P/E is 9.2×, higher than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to fall.
- **PEG: 0.04**. A PEG of 0.04 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.9×.
- **Price / book: 0.9×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **EV / EBITDA: 5.2×**. Enterprise value is 5.2× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -7.4%** (5-yr avg -0.7%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 14.1%**. The inverse of the P/E: 14.1% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 35.7%**. 35.7% of revenue is left after running the business, an exceptional level.
- **Net margin: 19.4%**. 19.4% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 8.7%**. 8.7% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 10.9%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 10.9%.
- **Return on assets: 6.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces 6.9% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 47.8%** (3-yr -18.7%/yr). Revenue grew 47.8% over the last year.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 205.7%** (3-yr -32.3%/yr). Earnings per share rose 205.7%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.57**. Debt is 0.57 times equity, moderate leverage.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 1.5×**. It would take 1.5 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, within the comfortable range.
- **Current ratio: 0.91** (quick 0.91). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.79**. A Z-score of 1.79 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

- **From 52-week high: -39.6%** (0.8% above the low). Trading 40% below its 52-week high, deep in a drawdown.
- **200-day average: below**. The price sits below its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of a downtrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 34**. An RSI of 34 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.33** (volatility 42%). Beta of 0.33 against the S&P 500: the shares move much less than the market.
