## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 23.0×**. Ithaca Energy PLC trades at 23.0× trailing earnings. The Energy median in the September 2026 study was 16.8×. Forward P/E is 13.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 1.5×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.5×.
- **Price / book: 2.5×**. The shares trade at 2.5× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 3.4×**. Enterprise value is 3.4× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 21.6%** (5-yr avg 0.3%). Free cash flow equals 21.6% of the market value, above its five-year average of 0.3%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 4.4%**. The inverse of the P/E: 4.4% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability

## Financial health

- **Interest coverage: 6.4×**. Operating profit covers interest 6.4× over, a safe margin.
- **Current ratio: 0.79** (quick 0.62). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
